Tucked away on 26.53 acres of lush, natural beauty in Newland, this one-of-a-kind property welcomes you with a winding, moss-lined drive through ancient boulders and forested wonder. At the heart of this serene landscape is a charming two-bedroom, two-bath home offering breathtaking views of Yellow Mountain and an unforgettable sense of peace and privacy. As you approach home, you're greeted by vibrant gardens, flowering plants, and stone steps that lead through a tapestry of colors and textures. Inside, the open-concept kitchen, living and dining areas invite easy living, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a gas range for the home chef. Rustic beams throughout and warm natural light enhance the space. Double doors lead to a covered porch where you can relax on the swing and take in the stunning mountain views and the large boulder in the woods below, it feels magical. The main-level primary suite features a full bath with a tub and a separate shower. Just beyond, a versatile flex room offers space for an office, creative studio or quiet reading nook, complete with a stacked washer and dryer hidden in the closet. Upstairs, a guest bedroom enjoys its porch with views of the trees and nature, a second full bath and another flex space open to a separate deck with stairs leading down to the gardens, suitable for guests, a yoga studio or a home office with direct outdoor access. The lower level provides ample storage and potential to be finished to suit your vision. The land itself is rich with natural features—creeks meander through the property, a spring provides deeded water rights, and a tranquil pond adds to the peaceful ambiance. A storage building below the home offers space for tools, gear or gardening supplies. This home is a rare opportunity to own a mountain sanctuary full of character, charm and endless possibilities, great as a full-time residence, seasonal escape or nature-inspired retreat. The home offers a whole home generator!
