Experience breathtaking views of the Watauga River and nearby mountains while relaxing on 5.45 acres of pure cliffside bliss with over 430 feet of private river frontage! This beautiful 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home was renovated in Spring 2023 and is the ultimate mountain retreat, delivering captivating views, hiking trails, 3 fire pits, a hot tub, game room, and so much more. Enter to a cozy front sitting room complete with a striking stone fireplace. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features custom cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and plenty of space to gather, meal prep, and entertain. The dining room and den are outfitted with expansive windows offering stunning views of the river below. Spend the days basking in the sun on your main floor decks or enjoy the breeze from your screened porch. The main floor includes two primary bedroom suites with ensuite bathrooms. One bedroom suite has a private deck and ensuite bath with a soaking tub, separate shower, double vanity with granite countertop, and a large walk-in closet. The 2nd bedroom suite has a walk-in closet and ensuite bath with a shower and double vanity. The laundry room, a half-bath, and an office with private entry are also on this level for one level living. Downstairs, you'll find a 3rd large bedroom with hallway access to a full bath with shower and double vanity. Downstairs also includes a bonus room outfitted with a custom bunk space, and a large game room decked out with ping pong, an arcade game, card table, and games galore! Outside on the covered patio, relax and soak in the hot tub while taking in the mountain and river views. Head down to the riverfront or the overlook point to enjoy a fire with the shimmering water in the background. Fantastic investment opportunity! The sellers worked with licensed contractors for renovations and to convert the old garage and laundry room into the front bedroom and bath but did not pull permits. A detached garage with 2nd floor heated area & unheated basement area could be finished out for more living space. The house sits up on the hill outside of the flood zone and the land is unrestricted. Plus, this peaceful retreat is just 17 min to Boone and 17 min to Watauga Lake! Launch your kayak from your backyard and enjoy river breezes all day long. Spend the afternoon exploring the nearby hiking trail that leads to a gorgeous waterfall or explore the exclusive trails on your property. Experience a quieter kind of wild - private waterfront living with all the serenity and none of the crowds. Come see this amazingly versatile mountain retreat!
