Property Description
Welcome to one of Burke County's most sought-after condo communities, where low-maintenance living meets a peaceful wooded setting just minutes from downtown Morganton and I-40. Surrounded by mature trees and abundant wildlife including birds, deer and even an occasional bear. This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is filled with character. The living area is anchored by a striking floor to ceiling reclaimed barnwood gas fireplace surround and wood mantel. A custom black iron and cable railing along the staircase and upper level adds a distinctive architectural touch. The versatile loft provides wonderful flex space for yoga or exercise, a home office, TV/ entertainment area or overnight guests, with its own mini-split for added comfort. The spacious primary bedroom features a lovely bay window framed by mature holly tress filled with local birds throughout the year, along with a customized walk-in closet. The upstairs bath was refreshed in 2025 with new flooring, toilet and refinished tub. Extensively renovated in 2018, additional improvements include all-new windows and kitchen sliding glass doors, a new water heater and a loft mini-split. Gas cooking adds another welcoming convenience. Outside, the wraparound deck, with shaded rear area, offers the perfect place to unwind in the evening and enjoy beautiful year-round sunset views. Most exterior maintenance and landscaping are managed by the HOA, with city trash pickup and neighborhood dog-waste stations adding to the ease of everyday living. Just as special is the welcoming social atmosphere - a neighborhood where you can enjoy the privacy and tranquility of the wooded surroundings while still feeling connected to those around you. The community pool offers another favorite gathering place, with summer cookouts around major holidays and occasional movie nights adding to the sense of community.
