A charming home, originally built as a 1933 Blowing Rock cottage, was extensively renovated and expanded in 2010 while preserving its original character. It offers breathtaking long-range and layered views of the Blue Ridge Mountains including Johns River Gorge and Grandfather Mountain from every level. Conveniently on a quiet dead-end street within distance of downtown Blowing Rock. This four-bedroom, four-bath home includes a main-level den/office. Its spacious great room features a grand stone wood-burning fireplace and tongue and groove ceilings. There are hardwood floors throughout the home with original wide plank flooring on the second level. The sunlit kitchen is particularly notable for its spaciousness, functionality and cathedral ceiling. Enjoy two large covered porches, one of which is screened, and a stone patio and pathways for outdoor relaxation. Recent updates include a renovated first-floor bath including a new walk-in shower in 2022, new water heater in 2024, the addition of air conditioning in 2023, refinished floors in 2024 and encapsulation of the crawlspace in 2022. This property offers a blend of historic charm and modern comfort in a desirable location. A list of furnishings that will convey to the buyer can be found in the online documents. Fireplace on lower lever is non-functioning. Spring on lower part of the property. Parking is available on two-car deck and two cars on Twin Springs Road. Garage is for golf cart or small car. Square footage discrepancy between tax card and professional measurements due to renovations that took place prior to seller owning the house. Back on the market due to no fault to the seller.
