About This Home

As of February 2016

This recently remodeled home is priced to sell! Walk in to the level access home for all the main living. The large and open living/dining area is surrounded in large, open windows where you can take in Boone! From here you can hear the announcer at the ASU Stadium, watch the people cmoe and go in downtown Boone. From the two enclosed decks you can see Grandfather Mountain, Sugar Ski Slopes, and layers after layers of mountain ridge. This home has you on top of the world and you will love it! Seller says you can see the fireworks on Fourth of July from above! The master is large with 2 master bathrooms, the kitchen is large and shows great. Beautiful flooring throughout the home! A screen deck and an enclosed deck for all seasons will allow you to take in the mountains all year round! An oversized 1 car garage and a level driveway make this home a dream! This home is really on the top of Boone, the views are amazing. To think you can sit in your living room and see for MILES, this is what living in the mountains is all about!
