Viewing this custom, recently built farmhouse-style home is truly a treat. From the porch or nearly any window in the house, the breathtaking mountain and French Broad River views will stop you in your tracks. Situated on over 3.5 acres, this property offers full-length covered front and back porches—perfect for relaxing and taking in the scenery. The home features an attached two-car garage with additional storage space, along with two separate storage buildings ideal for tools, crafts, or play areas. An encapsulated crawlspace provides peace of mind and added efficiency. Inside, you'll find an open-concept floor plan with a spacious living room and a stunning kitchen designed for both function and entertaining. The kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, a large center island, farmhouse sink, gas (propane) range, two wall ovens (one with an air fryer), a garbage disposal, and a walk-in pantry with a charming barn door. The dining area easily accommodates a large table, making it perfect for gatherings. This home offers exceptional convenience with two laundry areas—one near the bedrooms and another near the garage entrance. Adjacent to the garage is a versatile space ideal for a freezer or additional storage, located near the pantry and a full bathroom. A room just off the living room, complete with a large closet but no window, works perfectly as a home office or playroom. Down the hall are three bedrooms and another full bath. The spacious primary suite features two oversized walk-in closets and a private bath with a tiled walk-in shower. One bedroom has been used as a home office and includes sound-insulated walls, ideal for quiet work-from-home days. Additional highlights include a total of three full bathrooms, a gas (propane) tankless water heater providing endless hot water, custom-built cabinetry throughout the kitchen and baths, and Spectrum high-speed internet availability. The sellers report the highest monthly electric bill—including water—was just $275.
