for $389,000 with 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. This 1,417 square foot home was built in 2006 on a lot size of 6.63.
Set on approximately 6.65 acres of pure privacy, this thoughtfully designed retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, acreage, and mountain-area adventure. With 1,415 heated square feet, this two-bedroom, two-bath with bonus room upstairs home lives effortlessly, surrounded by mature trees, and open sky. Owners have previously used a portion of the property to garden offering sustainability. Inside, the home features a bright, inviting layout with warm natural light and easy flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces. Each bedroom offers peaceful views and private access to nature, creating a sense of calm that carries throughout the home. A standout feature of the property is the 1,188 sq ft garage and workshop — ideal for hobbyists, craftsmen, gear storage, or anyone who needs serious space for projects, vehicles, or equipment. Outdoors, the acreage unfolds beautifully, offering room to explore, garden, build, or simply enjoy the serenity of your own mountain haven. Despite the privacy, you’re just minutes from some of Western North Carolina’s most iconic destinations: Lake James, the Fonta Flora Trail, Linville Gorge, Mount Mitchell and nearby ski slopes for year-round recreation. Whether you’re seeking a primary residence with room to breathe or a private getaway close to world-class outdoor experiences, this property delivers a rare combination of acreage, convenience, and mountain lifestyle.
