Nestled on 2.27± private acres in the heart of the High Country, this beautiful log home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort—just minutes from Blowing Rock, Boone, and Foscoe. Whether you are searching for a full-time mountain retreat, a second home, or an income-producing vacation rental, this cabin truly checks all the boxes.
Take in long-range mountain views from your wraparound covered porch as deer roam by and the occasional bear cub makes an appearance. The inviting open floor plan is filled with natural light and warm character, featuring hardwood floors and classic tongue-and-groove walls that create an authentic mountain feel.
This three-bedroom, three-bathroom home offers two spacious primary suites, each complete with walk-in closets and jetted soaking tubs. An open loft provides additional sleeping quarters, making it ideal for guests or extended family. Additional spaces include a guest bedroom on the main level, a dedicated office, a cozy den, a recreation room, and a heated sunroom perfect for year-round enjoyment.
The kitchen features a walk-in pantry, ample counter space, and flows seamlessly into the dining area and great room—ideal for entertaining or gathering after a day in the mountains. The unfinished basement includes a tandem two-car garage, offering plenty of room for hobbies, storage, or workshop space.
Tucked among mature trees, this home delivers peace, privacy, and breathtaking views while remaining just a short drive from shopping, dining, hiking trails, skiing, and everything the High Country has to offer. A new roof was installed in 2024. The home is being sold furnished with some exclusions.
