Welcome to 151 Lomax Street, a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home located in a quiet, convenient neighborhood in east Boone — just minutes from Appalachian State University, Boone’s vibrant downtown, Watauga Medical Center, and Samaritan’s Purse. The main level features an inviting open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, perfect for gatherings and everyday living. All three bedrooms are located on the main floor, including a primary suite with ensuite bath. The walk-out lower level provides exceptional flexibility, offering a cozy den with a wood-burning stove, a dedicated office, third full bath, spacious laundry area with storage, a heated storage room, and a heated workshop/studio space ideal for hobbies, crafts, or creative work. Step outside to enjoy both front and rear decks, offering great outdoor living spaces. The fenced backyard is great for family, pets, and entertaining. Over the past four years, the sellers have made thoughtful updates including bathroom renovations, new flooring in some rooms, updated fixtures, and more — making this home truly move-in ready. No permits are on record for finishing about 500 SF of lower level; sellers note they added drywall, paint and wall heating in that area. The home has been a cherished full-time residence but has also served as a rental investment in the past. Additional highlights include no POA, paved state-maintained street, and a community water system managed by Carolina Water. The sellers have especially loved the sense of community on Lomax Street and are excited for new owners to enjoy the neighborhood as much as they have.
