About This Home
Nestled on 1.5 peaceful acres, this charming renovated farmhouse proves you don't have to sacrifice character to find an affordable mountain retreat. Priced at just $299,000, this adorable homestead has been thoughtfully restored with an appreciation for its rustic charm while offering the comforts of everyday living. Inside, you'll find 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a spacious country kitchen with concrete countertops, plenty of room to gather, and an inviting living space with 'pot belly' wood stove, that feels warm and welcoming. Step outside to the covered front porch, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee while listening to the sounds of the spring-fed water and taking in the peaceful surroundings. Located on state-maintained paved roads, the property offers the tranquility of country living without sacrificing convenience, just 30 minutes from downtown Boone and 20 minutes from beautiful Watauga Lake. More than just a renovation, this home is a labor of love. Countless hours of hard work and care have gone into breathing new life into this special farmhouse, creating a place that's ready for its next chapter. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or an affordable mountain escape, this charming homestead is one you'll want to experience in person. Water source is a spring. No septic permit available. No permits were pulled, however we believe the only permit that would have been required would be for the mini-split. Future buyer may want to add additional insulation in the attic.
