Property Description

Welcome to your own creekside mountain retreat, where the soothing rush of Jonathan Creek and the thrill of first-class fly fishing in Hatchery Supported waters is just outside your back door! Situated at approximately 2,500 feet in elevation, this classic contemporary-style home has plenty to offer, 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a lower-level flex space, and the convenience of main-level living. Set on 1.38 private acres at the end of the street, this special property offers the perfect blend of comfort, character, and mountain adventure—from fishing and floating to fireside evenings and peaceful mornings by the water. The main level features an inviting kitchen with breakfast bar, stainless appliances, quartz countertops, dining area, laundry, and primary suite with a garden Jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The fully furnished lower level includes a versatile flex space, full bath, tack/storage/utility room, and two closets. Gather around the warm propane-fueled stone fireplace and look closely for the charming hidden fish tucked into the stonework! Outside, enjoy a huge level yard, partially fenced area for your well-loved furry friends, storage shed, Trex deck, and inviting spaces for relaxing by the creek. Recent improvements include a new gravel and stone driveway, Trex deck, stainless kitchen appliances and quartz countertops, on-demand tankless propane water heater, whole-home water filtration system with softener (2024), and radon mitigation system (2018). The lower level was fully restored and renovated following Hurricane Helene. The home is sold partially furnished and is located in the Flood Fringe area currently enrolled in the National Flood Insurance Program with a surprisingly affordable annual premium. Located in an investor-friendly area with a history of Short-Term Rentals, this property offers wonderful potential as a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or income-producing retreat. Convenient to downtown Waynesville and Maggie Valley, approximately 35 minutes to Asheville, and close to Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cataloochee Ranch & Ski Resort. Come experience creekside mountain living where adventure, relaxation, and the beauty of nature are right outside your door.
