About This Home

As of July 2025

Not often does a newly remodeled home in a private setting come available at such an affordable price. This home has been amazingly repurposed from an old-time summer cottage to a modern, single-level, year-round residence. It's in a low-density neighborhood convenient to US 64 and a manageable drive to Cashiers and Brevard. It's got an open floor plan giving the living area a spacious feel with 2 ample-sized bedrooms. Very efficient HVAV ducted mini-split system to keep the home warm in winter and cool in summer. Even a brand-new well and septic. DSL available through Comporium, and fiber optic is scheduled for installation in the next year. A great value for those looking for a smaller value-priced home at a higher elevation.
