A meticulously restored 1976 family home located close to both Sylva and Franklin. Nestled away in the privacy of the tree tops on a light filled 1 acre lot, this hidden jewel features a wrap-around deck for gatherings or relaxing evenings lite by the motion activated lighting. Improvements of the home include solid wood interior doors, hickory cabinets in both the kitchen and baths, HVAC system upstairs with room to expand, new carpet, shower lighting, and ceiling fans throughout. The kitchen has been restored with under cabinet lighting and top of the line appliances. Privacy and community combine, this beautiful home is certainly a polished gem.
