1868 Andy Hicks Rd, Banner Elk, NC 28604
About this home
This is what you've been looking for! A cozy cabin right out of a story book, snuggled in the snowy woods on 8 wooded acres, with a beautiful view from the home. Step into this custom built cedar log home with vaulted exposed beams, a warm welcoming kitchen, and real wood floors in the kitchen and living room. Bright light streams into the vaulted living room from the large windows and French doors that flank a gorgeous floor to ceiling stone wood burning fireplace. There are two bedrooms on the main level which share a bathroom. The stairs lead you up to the primary bedroom, bath and reading nook in the loft. Step outside to enjoy complete solitude, cocktails on the deck, spectacular sunsets and/or hike the gently rolling 8 acres, down to the old barn around near the creek on the property. Sold partially furnished, exceptions in documents. This home has never been in a rental program but would probably do well. Also, lots of parking. There is a beautiful old barn on the property that could be valuable for the wood.
