This beautifully renovated home sits on a low-maintenance one-acre tract featuring two streams and breathtaking layered mountain views to the south, with clear-day glimpses of the Charlotte skyline. The property includes a one-car garage/workshop wired for 120 and 220 volts, ideal for hobbies or work. Recent professional upgrades ensure comfort and efficiency: a lifetime metal roof added in 2021, a top-rated dual-fuel heat pump HVAC system with a high SEER rating and a new energy recovery ventilator for fresh indoor air year-round. Electrical systems meet 2023 Avery County standards with a modern ROBY circuit breaker panel, backed by a partial-house generator connected to propane for storm resilience. The gourmet kitchen shines with solid wood maple cabinetry, granite counters and travertine accents. Renovations include four metal skylights, reconfigured baths with a vintage clawfoot tub, a new mudroom, basement spiral stairs, and a reinforced deck engineered to support a future hot tub. Outdoor features highlight professional landscaping with antique wrought-iron fencing, a no-mow half-acre lawn and bird-friendly plantings. Safety is enhanced with upgraded lightning protection and sealed crawlspaces, while energy efficiency benefits from a high-capacity water heater with a titanium corrosion anode. Fast Starlink internet and extensive interior lighting complete this move-in-ready mountain sanctuary.
