About This Home

Wake up each morning to long range mountain vistas, crisp mountain air, and the peaceful sounds of nature from this exceptional log-sided cabin nestled on more than two private acres in the heart of the North Carolina mountains. Beautifully constructed in 2007 and maintained in immaculate condition, this fully furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of timeless mountain character and modern comfort. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or an income-producing vacation rental, this property is truly move-in ready.
From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the warmth and craftsmanship throughout. Soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, exposed wood finishes, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace create an inviting great room that's perfect for gathering with family and friends after a day of exploring the mountains. Expansive windows bring the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light while showcasing the breathtaking long-range views from nearly every angle.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring beautiful cabinetry, a center island, a farmhouse sink, generous counter space, and modern appliances. Whether preparing a quiet breakfast or hosting guests, this space is as functional as it is beautiful.
Upstairs, the spacious loft serves as an impressive primary suite, creating a private retreat overlooking the living area below. Relax after a long day in the luxurious soaking tub or enjoy the beautifully tiled shower, all while surrounded by the warmth and charm of this mountain home.
Step outside onto the expansive covered deck and discover what makes this property truly special. Sip your morning coffee as the sun rises over the mountains, unwind with a glass of wine while watching spectacular sunsets, or simply take in the year-round long-range views and peaceful surroundings. Every season offers a different masterpiece.
Comfort is assured year-round with central heating and air conditioning, complemented by a newer mini-split system serving the upstairs loft. The home has been meticulously cared for inside and out, allowing the next owner to simply arrive and start enjoying everything it has to offer.
Located above Sawyer Cove Hideaway with private road access, this property offers both privacy and convenience while remaining close to the area's endless outdoor recreation, hiking, trout fishing, whitewater rafting, scenic drives, and charming mountain towns.
Being sold fully furnished, this is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey mountain retreat where virtually everything is already in place. Just bring your suitcase and start making memories--or begin generating rental income from day one.
