Charming home in Highlands, NC. Built in 1945, back when homes were built to last, and this one is no exception. Located in the Flat Mountain area, this 2 BR/2 bath home has everything you need to enjoy your time in the mountains of western NC. Wood floors throughout, wood-burning stone fireplace in the living room, updated kitchen with all new appliances, washer/dryer included and a dining area that can fit a long table that allows up to twelve at the table- just imagine the gatherings! There's a bonus room between the Mst. BR and bathroom, perfect for an office, study, dressing room or extra closet/storage. The gently rolling lawn changes from 3960 feet to just over 4000 feet, and has beautiful native rhododendrons, and a few fruit trees as well as shrubs, hydrangeas and other landscape plants. The plentiful parking area is convenient to both the front entrance or the back entrance. In the back, there's room for a conversation area (like a fire pit) or you can landscape more, or have a small gardens. The front entrance is lovely with plantings, and the large covered deck is where most people love to relax, have a morning cup of coffee, or an afternoon glass of wine. The house is situated well above View Point Road, which leads to a one-road subdivision by the same name. The water comes from a neighboring subdivision water system, and the gravel road is maintained by View Point HOA. Very reasonable fees. This home had a home inspection in 2018, and these sellers listened to the inspector and repaired or replaced things to make their home even MORE perfect. Please contact your Broker, or our office to see this home. Priced reasonably, and with consideration to all the improvements made since 2015. The hard work has been done for you, now it's time for you to reap the rewards of owning a home in the mountains. This home is in our vacation rental program, but can be shown by appointment.
