Whether you crave peaceful mornings on the porch or full days exploring waterfalls and scenic overlooks, this location delivers an unmatched outdoor lifestyle. Inside, thoughtful renovations elevate the home with fresh style and functionality. The updated kitchen features new cabinetry, beautiful countertops, a generous island perfect for gathering, and a professional-grade gas range with hood — ideal for entertaining or crafting a quiet meal after a day on the trails. Durable LVP flooring, a newer HVAC system, and a cozy gas-fired parlor stove provide comfort and efficiency year-round. Privately positioned near the end of a quiet gravel road, this property offers rare seclusion while remaining accessible. Equally suited as a full-time residence, weekend escape, or income-producing vacation rental, this mountain hideaway is ready to welcome its next chapter.
