About This Home

As of October 2025

Nestled in the woods, this charming cabin sits on 3.4 acres with hiking trails to explore and a small stream that adds to the peaceful mountain setting. A screened front porch invites you to relax and listen to the creek as it flows nearby. This is an ideal spot for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. Inside, the primary bedroom is located on the main level and includes its own sitting area, perfect for reading or quiet time. The main level also offers the convenience of a laundry room. Upstairs, a versatile bonus room provides extra space for guests, a home office, or hobbies. Whether you envision a weekend retreat, a full-time residence, or an investment property, this mountain getaway combines comfort, privacy, and the natural beauty of Western North Carolina.
