Property Description
Welcome to one of the most special retreats you will find in the Western North Carolina mountains. Rare combination of end of the road privacy and true mountain tranquility adjoining the Pisgah National Forest. Immaculate and extremely well maintained private home on 1.8 acres, tucked away from all the noise in a peaceful gated community offering year round views of Honeycutt and Humpback Mountains. The bright, open floor plan features 1,771 total square feet of living area with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, (2-bedroom septic permit) insulated Pella windows throughout the whole house, wood, tile, and carpet flooring, gas logs fireplace, a breakfast bar, wine refrigerator, gas stove, central island and outside a spacious wraparound deck perfect for taking in the surrounding beauty and enjoying the cool summer breezes. In the oversized primary bedroom suite enjoy soaking in the large jacuzzi bath tub. The basement level provides separate living quarters that the owners have successfully rented on Airbnb for years, giving you the option to generate excellent revenue. The vacation rental market has made a full rebound since Hurricane Helene. A new owner could rent the entire house to generate substantial income. An additional highlight to give you peace of mind is a whole house Generac generator installed in 2020 but let’s not stop there. Last year in 2025 the owners made five huge upgrades to the property, installing a brand new well pump, a storm proof drainage system and culvert protecting the home and driveway, an on demand water heater and Bosch dishwasher and refrigerator. Property equipped with a 325 gal above ground propane tank. The attached one car garage benefits from direct kitchen access and an electric vehicle charger. Most of the furnishings in the home are negotiable. Community roads from the gate are ideal for hiking, biking and ATV friendly with no steep slopes. The 20 min drive from the gate to the grocery store in Marion is level the entire way. Centrally located between Boone (40 minutes) and Asheville (50 minutes), and only 30 minutes to ski resorts, 25 minutes to Lake James, 15 minutes to Linville Gorge Wilderness, and 10 minutes to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Falls, Linville Falls Winery and a general store. If you are looking for a private retreat to get away from it all, this is the one. Call today to schedule your showing!
