About This Home
Tucked beside a bold, rushing creek, this high country mountain cottage offers rustic charm, and modern mountain living. Ideally located between Boone and Banner Elk within the highly sought-after newly built Valle Crucis School (2025) district. Inside, the beautiful old stone fireplace commands attention as the centerpiece of the living room, creating an inviting gathering space filled with character and charm. The efficient kitchen is equipped with everything needed for comfortable everyday living or memorable weekend escapes. A main-level primary bedroom and full bath offer convenient one-level living. Additional bedroom on main level great for guests. Upstairs, an additional sleeping area, half bath, and cozy game nook provide flexible guest accommodations and recreation space. This upper-level area features lower ceiling heights and is not included in the home’s total heated square footage. Step outside and discover where mountain memories are made. The expansive wraparound deck invites you to relax to the sounds of the rushing creek while enjoying the BBQ area, hot tub, and fire pit — ideal for entertaining family and friends or unwinding beneath the stars. A fenced dog run adds another thoughtful feature for pet owners.
Currently operating as a successful vacation rental, this unique creekside cottage presents an exceptional opportunity as an income-producing investment, charming second home, or full-time mountain residence in one of the High Country’s most desirable locations. Minutes to high country adventures! Hiking, biking, rock climbing, Blue Ridge Parkway cruising, unique shops, restaurants and strolling quaint main streets of Blowing Rock.
