About This Home

As of June 2026

Welcome to "The Bear Den" - a charming mountain home with a successful vacation rental history! Located in a highly-desirable Holly Springs location, this home's flexible layout suits families, retirees, part-timers or full-time life. You'll enjoy main-level living with 2 primary suites, an open floorplan and an expansive screened porch overlooking beautiful year-round mountain VIEWS. The living area features updated flooring, SS-look appliances & a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The laundry is conveniently located between the two bedrooms. Downstairs, there's a large bonus suite with private bath & kid's nook that appears to have formerly been a mini-kitchen. A 28x24 oversized garage with workshop space is ideal for storage or hobbies. At The Bear Den you'll enjoy privacy and views without the remote location - easy paved access just 4 gentle miles to downtown Franklin, NC. Make your part-time mountain home pay for itself - ask for copies of the vacation rental history. The home will come ready for you - furnished with decor and accessories. Gentle yard, private well, central HVAC up/mini-split down, storage building, concrete driveway... there's so much to love in your new "den"!
