Back on Market due to interest rates/buyer's remorse! This custom built home in serene Katy Creek brings comfort, convenience, & easy maintenance with natural pizazz. Gorgeous oak floors, tongue-in-groove walls, a lovely, large eat-in kitchen and living room w/fireplace all conspire to your peace. There’s a ground level basement garage plus a detached two-car garage you can make into anything you choose. Outdoor living is sublime, w/natural landscaping and a gentle yard w/areas for tea or happy gatherings down by gorgeous, rushing Katy Creek. There's a brick-paved picnic area with a firepit and nearby woodshed, and two fenced gardens for your homegrown pleasure. Everything here has been impeccably maintained. Katy Creek is a small gated community in Eastern McDowell County, halfway between the charming towns of Marion & Morganton. STRs not allowed. This area boasts artists of all variety, and the South Mountains, Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Gorge & Asheville are all within 45 minutes.
