Tucked away on a quiet gravel road just minutes from Boone, this charming mountain retreat offers privacy, natural beauty, and easy access to the best of the High Country. The beautifully landscaped property features established perennials, flowering trees, native rhododendrons, and meandering paths through the wooded grounds. Inside, the 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features an open floor plan with wood floors, vaulted ceilings, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the great room with natural light and offer seasonal mountain views. A stone wood burning fireplace anchors the living space, while the upstairs loft bedroom overlooks the great room and expansive windows. Outside, relax around the fire pit beside a small babbling creek or explore the rhododendron lined paths behind the home. The peaceful setting feels tucked away while remaining convenient to Elk Knob State Park, the New River, and just 9 miles from Appalachian State University and downtown Boone. This would make a great home away from home and can be rented out when you are not using it for yourself. The current owners rent it out about half the year when it’s not being used personally. The home has been successful as a short term rental and has outstanding reviews. The home is being sold FULLY FURNISHED and is move in ready. Enjoy it as a mountain getaway home or as your primary residence.
