Beautiful home on over 24 unrestricted acres with river views, total privacy, paved access, and one-level living! Wind up the paved drive and by a beautiful south facing field which currently houses the garden area and equipment shed and has big views of the Watauga River and mountains beyond. Once at the house pull into the attached or detached garage which matches the home perfectly with hardboard siding and a metal roof. Porches and decks on the front and rear offer ample space for gathering, dining, and enjoying the tranquil nature of the property. Predominately wooded acreage has multiple trails, ample wildlife, privacy, and additional building sites. Inside you are greeted by soaring T&G ceilings throughout the open living, dining, and kitchen. Stone fireplace is the accent piece and currently has gas logs but was designed to burn wood, along with a toasty wood stove in the basement which keeps the house cozy on those chilly winter evenings. Primary suite is on the main level and recently remodeled with ample space, laundry, walk in closet, and tiled bath with recent tiled shower with glass door. Kitchen features stainless appliances, granite counters, and access to rear deck with a permanent gas line for grilling. Upstairs is a loft with half bath utilized as bedroom 2, but would make a wonderful home office. Basement is one large open space just waiting to be transformed into anything you would like. With a wood stove on one wall and an additional laundry, think of it as the ultimate flex space. Unfinished room off of finished basement space can be additional storage, workshop, you name it. Main and lower level step out onto large open decks to enjoy the mountain breezes. With additional acreage available, don't miss this large acreage opportunity that would have even more dramatic river and mountain views with a little view enhancement, come and see today!
