44 Country Cottage Ln, Canton, NC 28716

Gorgeous views from Gated Golf Course Community Cottage convenient to Asheville (30 minutes) and Waynesville (15 minutes). Socially active community of friendly folks makes this a magical place to live nestled in the Pisgah National Forest. The beautiful Springdale Golf Course is reasonable to play as a member or guest year round, weather permitting. Great summer social events within the community as well if you like to get to know nice neighbors! You can walk 4 miles within the community from front to back gates round trip. Living at the higher elevation of 3,300 feet offers a cooler temperature than in the valley areas for more comfortable summer weather too. This two bedroom, two bath is set up as two master suites. The open Living/Dining/Kitchen offers panoramic views of the Pisgah and Cold Mountain Ranges. The cottage has been completely updated from new floors and ceilings, kitchen and baths, and lighting. The fireplace is wood burning for added ambiance while the central A/C and Heat provide comfortable year round indoor temperatures. Windows are well insulated for affordable energy consumption year round. In 2013, $35K. was spent renovating the cottage with new ceilings, floors, kitchen, baths, and appliances. Kitchen and Baths have granite counters. I paid $105K. in 2012 and the cottage appraised at $149K. in July 2016. Furnishings and washer/dryer are negotiable. New roof in 2008. If you want more space, the unfinished, dry basement/garage area can easily be converted for another 885 sq. ft. of living. Also, a wrap around deck with ramp can be added to avoid entry stairs. Road Maintenance agreement $400/year. There is no HOA fee which is remarkable for a gated golf course community. Haywood County property tax is less than $850/year. DirecTV satellite offers a variety of options and ATT DSL is available for internet connection and WiFi. Community Sewer and Water is reasonably priced and water is very good quality for drinking. Quarterly billing is $35-45/month based on usage. Monthly electric bill varies between $71 to $143/month. I live in the neighborhood already and it is time to sell my vacation rental cottage to simplify my life :) It has rented quite well on VRBO/Homeaway and Airbnb. Whether you are looking for your primary home or second home with rental opportunity, this is a wonderful choice at a great value :) NOTE: Zillow Zestimate does not account for renovations, mountain views, and other details.
