This adorable 3-bedroom 1 full bath home on 1.53 acres in Black Mountain is perfect as a starter home, short term rental or investment property. There is a deeded well agreement and easement for the shared well and when the pressure tank and switch needed to be replaced very recently the seller and the neighbor sharing the well split the cost. There was no damage to the home during hurricane Helene, and the seller does not and is not required to carry a flood policy, but she did look into it and the cost with her insurance company would be $973.00 per year. The flat gravel driveway has ample parking for 6 or more vehicles. The level front and side yard is fully fenced and a lovely space to lay in your hammock and read or take an afternoon nap. There is plenty of room for entertaining including outdoor games and grilling. From the parking area there is a sweet porch for relaxing with coffee in the morning or your beverage of choice in the evening. The door leads into the newly remodeled eat in kitchen including all new soft close cabinets, beautiful butcher block counter tops and large farmhouse style sink. There are beautiful refinished and stained wood floors throughout the home and tile in the full bathroom. The kitchen is fully open to the charming living room and through to the front door and foyer with coat closet. Down the hall you will find a well-appointed, roomy full bathroom, the primary bedroom and two lovely guest rooms. The utility room is off of the kitchen. Through the door and down a couple of steps is the laundry area, with several quite new upgrades including the water heater, well pressure tank, pressure switch, whole house water filtration system, and gas furnace. There is a drain in the center of the concrete floor and a door leading to the back of the house. The interior of the home has all new windows, has been completely repainted and has several new doors. The seller has had the foundation repaired, added a new drain field for the septic system, and had a very recent plumbing and well inspection. All documentation will be provided to serious and qualified buyers. This home is for those who want beautiful pastoral views, room to play in their own yard yet convenient to the quaint downtown area of Black Mountain with fabulous restaurants, local shops and so close to Tomahawk Lake and an abundance of walking areas.
