About This Home
Charming Mini Farm with Endless Possibilities! Welcome to your peaceful retreat in the beautiful Laurel Springs community in eastern Ashe County. This well-maintained cottage/ranch-style home sits on over 3 acres of land, offering privacy, serenity, and a true taste of country living. Tucked back from the main road, this charming home provides the perfect blend of comfort and functionality. Inside, you'll find beautiful hardwood flooring in the bedrooms, with hardwood also located under the carpet in the living room—ideal if you prefer hardwood throughout. A new mini-split system was installed in fall 2024 and serves as the home’s efficient heating and cooling source. The layout includes two traditional bedrooms, plus a versatile third room that can be used as a guest room, home office, or cozy sitting room. The laundry room/ mud room off the kitchen does not have a heat vent so was not included in the heated SF. This home is being sold furnished, including appliances—just bring your suitcase and move right in! The property includes a large barn for storage or livestock, a detached carport, a cellar with additional storage above
and open pasture, suitable for horses, livestock, or crops, established apple trees, a peach tree, and grapevines. There are also multiple building sites, including a cleared knoll that offers potential long-range views—suitable for a second home or guest cottage.
All of this is located just minutes from the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway and a short 15+ minute drive to downtown West Jefferson.
Don’t miss this opportunity to own a slice of mountain paradise with boundless potential!
