Charming 3BR/2BA on 5.85 acres w/frontage on Dutch Creek & long range mountain views in the heart of Valle Crucis. Feather board siding, wrap-around decks, stone walls, & walkways add to this enchanting setting. Inside this one story cottage one finds a brick fireplace w/gas logs, easy-care paneled walls, carpeted & vinyl floors, Laundry Area, & ceiling fans. There is both electric heat as well as gas powered central heat and air. The water is sourced by a spring, and there is another spring on the property. There is a one car attached garage on the upper level, and a detached over-sized 2-car Garage & Work Shop at the bottom of the hill. The house has an externally accessed "dug out" basement, with room for storage under the porch. A central gas furnace, gas fireplace, & back-up generator will keep this mountain getaway warm & cozy year round. The gently sloping surrounding acreage has level areas for gardening & a second building site w/grand views of Hanging Rock & beyond. There is a small orchard with peaches, pears, and apple trees. The house is being sold AS-IS. There are a lot of things that need work. Here's all the bad stuff: The porch is in need of some serious work, there are some beams that will need replacing in order for it to fully pass inspection. The kitchen cabinets below the sink have some water damage from an old water leak. The HVAC System still works, but is OLD, and will want an upgrade. The generator needs servicing, but is wonderful to have around, especially in big storms. There is a hole in one of the paneled walls that will need patching up. There are some woodpecker holes on the outside of the house from one of those pesky woodpeckers. OOF! All of the carpet will need replacing. It's old, well worn, and endured three very wonderful, but destructive dogs. Valle Crucis, an intimate mountain community with a unique history, is dedicated to preserving the surrounding natural beauty & culture. Valle Crucis attractions include the historic Mast General Store, Valle Crucis Fair, 1861 Farmhouse Restaurant & Winery, & Valle Crucis Community Park w/athletic fields, picnic pavilions, walking trail, & access to the Watauga River for fishing.
