Not all ranch homes are created equal — this thoughtfully built, energy-efficient 3BR/2BA stands out from the moment you arrive. Beautifully maintained and designed for easy one-level living, this home is located in a fabulous setting with state-maintained paved road access right to the property. Enjoy quick and convenient access to downtown Murphy, NC as well as Blue Ridge, GA — close to everything while still feeling comfortably tucked away. Built with energy-efficient SIP construction, the home offers durability, comfort, and quality you can feel. Engineered hardwood flooring runs throughout, and natural light fills the living spaces through quality windows and sliding doors. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring leathered granite countertops and stainless appliances. The range hood is vented to the exterior — a true detail for those who love to cook. The living room is anchored by a stacked stone gas log fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. Outdoor living is just as impressive with a 430 sq ft deck and an additional 430 sq ft workshop/storage area below. The oversized two-car garage, circular drive, and over a quarter acre of fenced yard space provide flexibility for hobbies, guests, or four-legged family members. High-speed fiber optic internet is available. Quality construction, thoughtful upgrades, workshop and garage space, and a location that makes everyday life easy — this one truly has it all.
