Start your mornings with coffee in hand on a sunlit wrap-around porch and spend evenings by the fire pit, all in a peaceful, private setting. A fenced yard provides space for pets and play, while the living room's wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character inside. Beautiful wood paneling gives the interior a classic, cozy feel, and large windows fill the rooms with just the right amount of sunlight. The kitchen is efficiently designed with a gas stove, solid surface countertops, and a bright dining area, making meal prep and casual entertaining effortless. A den and office area provide versatile spaces for work, hobbies, or relaxing. Two bedrooms, a full bath, and a half bath offer comfortable living, and the laundry room comes fully equipped with a washer and dryer. Thoughtfully maintained with practical upgrades including a metal roof (2010), all plumbing replaced (2018), a vapor barrier added to the crawl space (2018), and septic pumped (2020), this property blends modern convenience with mountain charm. High-speed fiber internet from Blue Ridge EMC keeps you connected, while the fenced yard and inviting outdoor spaces offer room to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Daily errands, dining, and shopping are just a short drive away, while nearby lakes, rivers, and creeks provide endless opportunities to explore the natural beauty that makes this area so special.
