Set on 9.17 acres with a pond, pasture, garden, and barn-workshop, this is the kind of extraordinary property that rarely becomes available in our area, often only once every five to ten years. The open-concept layout features a vaulted great room with a fireplace and custom built-in shelving, creating a warm, inviting focal point that flows effortlessly into the dining area and spacious kitchen. A large island with a gas range gives you plenty of workspace for cooking and entertaining. The primary suite opens directly to the multi-level deck and includes a double vanity and relaxing Jacuzzi tub. A finished basement, screened deck, and laundry room add everyday comfort. Guests will love the separate cottage with its own full kitchen, making it ideal for extended family or rental potential. Just minutes from John C. Campbell Folk School, Erlanger Western Carolina Hospital, and downtown Murphy, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy without giving up convenience.
