If you have ever wanted the perfect. .. “Blowing Rock, North Carolina Cottage”…. this is it! “It is like a diamond in a velvet box” right in downtown Blowing Rock where you can walk to everything. Improvements have been addressed from new heat pump/ air conditioning to newer appliances. The entire yard has been fenced in for your furry kids. Awesome for either 2nd home or full time living. This walk to town charmer has undergone wonderful cosmetic renovations. Great outdoor deck. The house itself is very sound and offers the ease of one level living. Extra parking pad and carport. Very convenient floor plan with level access to a very large flat back yard. Great for families and gardeners alike. Large unfinished walk-in basement offers lots of storage. This dream of a cottage in Blowing Rock is with in your reach. It is the lowest priced in-town free standing residence in this immaculate condition. The kitchen renovation exudes charm and comfort. Plenty of room for storage, and plenty of room to expand. The lower basement has been sealed by CLEAN SPACE.
