Enjoy scenic mountain views in every season from this absolutely adorable two bedroom one bath cottage just a short drive to Boone. This home has been lovingly cared for and updated with a new roof, water heater, and beautiful bathroom and kitchen upgrades. Cozy up by the fireplace and watch the snow fall in winter or watch the birds and bees enjoying the lovely pollinating garden in the summer. Wonderful, low maintenance, single level living home that could work well for a first time homebuyer, retiree, or as a rental investment or vacation home.
