This attractive, well-maintained home has exceptional long-range, layered mountain views extending as far as Clingman's Dome, Newfound Gap and the Balsams. At 4,700 feet, cool summertime temperatures are the norm — no air conditioning needed! Rustic yet refined, the interiors are light and bright with lots of windows. Preparing drinks and appetizers or big family meals is a pleasure in the stylish kitchen with Corian countertops, a gas range, wine cooler, center island and three sinks. The adjacent dining area opens to an inviting living room with a wood-burning stone fireplace, as well as a glass-enclosed sunroom and open deck, offering multiple vantage points for taking in the breathtaking vistas. Also on the main level, the master suite includes a roomy bath with a jetted tub, dual sinks, and a generous walk-in closet. Two spacious bedrooms with baths and a bonus room sit on the upper level. Downstairs, an open living area with a kitchenette, office, and bath makes a fantastic spot for entertaining or hosting overnight visitors. Additional features of this property include a hot tub, lower level deck, detached double garage with extra parking, large shed, and perennial gardens. Conveniently located between Cashiers, Highlands and Franklin, Cats Paw is very private and scenic, ideal for those seeking the true mountain experience. Lake Glenville's public boat launch and a community park are just 15 minutes away.
