About this home

Vintage (Boyd Williams custom design/build, 1971) 4 bedroom, 4 bath home, with arguably the best views in Hound Ears. Wrap-around porch offers spectacular golf course and Grandfather Mountain views. Massive stone hearth/fireplaces anchor the home with fireplaces in family room and lower-level bedroom. Thoughtful floorplan includes open living areas and primary bedroom (with his/her en-suite bathrooms) on the main level, with sliding glass doors to deck. Finished lower level hosts 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths with access to lower-level deck from two of the bedrooms. House and property are CLASSIC, RARE beauties that only need a new owner to update. An Equity Club Membership is transferrable to new homeowner. Please see attachments for amenities and POA information. PLEASE NOTE: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANYONE ENTER BALCONY ON UPPER BACK PORCH; deck is in-need of structural repairs in places. No Septic Permit could be found on record.
