Looking for a peaceful mountain escape — with all the comforts of a modern home and easy year-round access? Welcome to 771 Sally Gap Rd, where privacy, convenience, and quiet mountain living come together beautifully.
Built just a short time ago, this 3-bed, 2-bath home feels fresh and inviting from the moment you walk in. The open floor plan flows from the spacious living room into a large kitchen with island — perfect for cooking, gathering, or hosting friends. Vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and big windows bring in tons of natural light and gorgeous wooded views. Step out onto the covered back deck and enjoy coffee, sunsets, and cool mountain evenings.
The primary suite offers two walk-in closets and a relaxing ensuite with garden tub and tile shower — your own private retreat at the end of the day.
Outside, the property is designed to be easy to maintain so you can actually enjoy being here. A powered storage shed, whole-house water filtration, backup generator wiring, and a 500-gallon underground propane tank give peace of mind. Fiber internet is already in place, and Starlink is available — working from home is absolutely possible here.
You’ll love the location: this is the first home through the quiet back gate, and the land leading up to the house is protected conservancy, meaning your privacy and tranquility will last. Roads are maintained by the POA for leaves and snow, making access simple. No flood damage from Helene.
Whether you’re looking for a full-time home, a seasonal mountain getaway, or a low-maintenance second home, this property checks the boxes. Winter brings long-range views, summer brings cool breezes and shade — every season feels like a retreat.
Seller is offering a Home Warranty with an acceptable offer — and the price has been adjusted to make this incredible property even more attainable.
Come see why 771 Sally Gap Rd is the peaceful mountain home you’ve been looking for.
