This six-sided tree house on the edge of Dughill Ridge has all the serenity one might dream of, yet is only minutes from downtown Tryon. The views from the deck change with every season, each unique and wonderful. Inside, the views go with you, with vistas all around, and cordless shades when you want to block the sun. There are two bedrooms up, a great room with wood fireplace and multiple sitting areas, as well as a comfortable kitchen with granite counters. A large den and second wood fireplace provide additional multi-purpose space downstairs, with dumb waiter from kitchen to make for easy service. Parquet floors are featured throughout, and a dumb waiter near the kitchen can move meals and dishes from top to bottom. The heat pump, two years old, has years left under warranty. This casual home, secluded in the middle of the natural world, suits the Carolinas lifestyle. A rare find - mountain living just a few minutes away.
