The Mountains are Calling!Sick of being holed up at home?This mountain escape is exactly where you and your family need to be. Conveniently situated near North Carolina, this beautiful custom built log home allows you privacy, easy mountain and lake access but with the low taxes of East Tennessee. This retreat sits on a level lot which is hard to find in a mountainous area. Though a massive handsome three story structure, the owners thoughtfully designed an entrance that allows access without step climbing. The porches on every corner provide quiet privacy with the wrap around porch conducive to large gatherings. Beautiful stone fireplaces (with gas log convenience) delight all who enter. The open concept creates a wonderful atmosphere for family whether there for the Holidays or summer fun. The ensuite master on the main is tucked back for privacy and offers a great retreat. Let everyone join in the cooking in the open kitchen or let the kids take over the bottom floor or go out and play on the level open yard. When the sun goes down, gather round the fire pit or slip into the hot tub and share stories of the days events. You might hear about the fun on the lake or the hiking trails all around. Or maybe you hit the shops in nearby Boone. You may have preferred to saunter down the driveway and stare at the mountain views. No matter what adventure, you will come away refreshed and renewed every time you visit your mountain cabin. If you are like so many others working from home, you may want to make this your permanent residence as it is one of few that have great internet service. Plus, your utilities are underground! The wooded surroundings make you feel like you are the only home around (especially with the National Forest bordering your property). Yet, with a ten minute walk you can visit one of the four homes nearby. With a ten minute drive you can enjoy Watauga Lake. This is a gem!Buyer/Agent to verify all information presented in this listing. Parcel 053082.10 included.
