About this home

Step back into time and see this historic Lake Junaluska summer home. Built during the time when Owners came for the beautiful summer season. Still owned by the original Kilgore family, the home was used as a camp house for youth and church groups who came to enjoy Lake Junaluska. NO HEAT, no a/c were needed so it maintains the original character of times gone by. Kilgore House is waiting for you to give her some love and attention and make her the Lake's best AirBnB or VRBO property. With 4 Kitchens; 8 Bedrooms; 4 Baths, some with claw foot tubs, upper and lower covered porches. Don't forget to take a peek at the basement area for a possible workshop. House is, of course, sold As Is / Where Is with Seller making no repairs. Furniture and furnishings are included. Are you up for the challenge? NOTE: SELLER IS CALLING FOR HIGHEST AND BEST BY SUNDAY, JUNE 6, 2021 AT 6 PM.
