About This Home
Nestled amidst the serene woods of the North Carolina mountains, this wooded property with winter views of the New River offers a unique opportunity to own a secluded haven that balances tranquility and adventure. Whether you are seeking a permanent residence or a weekend getaway, this home promises both charm and potential. This mountain hideaway comes with almost 3 acres featuring an open concept upstairs with a great room which includes a living area, dining area, and two bedrooms serviced by a full-bath—opening on to an expansive covered rear deck. The lower level, which is partially below-grade, features a large open space just waiting for an imagination to give it life. Game room, family room, den, mud room...all are possibilities here. There is also a room which has been traditionally utilized as a third bedroom, a second full-bathroom, a bonus room which could be utilized as a FOURTH bedroom, office, or anything you like, and a large laundry room which is currently also being used as a workshop. This charming house is situated in a quiet, arboreal setting, providing privacy and tranquility for its inhabitants. Despite its secluded nature, the property is conveniently located just a stone’s throw from the placid town of Lansing, only 15-minutes from West Jefferson, a quaint mountain town known for its vibrant arts scene, local eateries, and welcoming community, and is within walking distance of the New River. Not far from the Virginia state line, you are also within a half-hour drive of Boone with all that a thriving university town has to offer, and the charming town of Blowing Rock. There are three ski destinations within a 45-minute drive. If you’re looking for a place to “get away from it all” yet still be "in the middle of everything," this is it! This is more than just a house; it’s a lifestyle waiting to be embraced. Don’t miss the chance to own a piece of North Carolina’s scenic beauty. Schedule a viewing today and step into a world of possibility.
