3 bedroom house for sale

Overview

This beautiful log home is in a private neighborhood with gardens, birds, and wildlife that fulfill your dreams of a mountain home!! 15 min to Boone and Banner Elk, near hiking, skiing, waterfalls, restaurants and wineries! Spacious rooms, updated kitchen, and full basement with a whole house water filter, central heating, wood stove, rock fireplace, 3 skylights, and a 2-car garage. There is a top-of-the-line Master Spa hot tub outside on a handsome wooden deck with benches and poles on which to hang towels. Your gardens consist of a small moss and fern garden, and a perennial garden, including copious hastas, lilac, Japanese Maple, Red Tip, Joe Pye Weed, Rose of Sharon, boxwood, rhododendron, Cardinal Flower, Day Lillies, a 12' Butterfly Tree, and Purple Smoke Tree (a ground cover that morphs into a small tree). The house sits in a dome-like sanctuary of hemlock, hardwoods, and rhododendrons with plenty of sunshine. The backyard features a fire pit w/ seating and a small wild daisy garden. In addition to your private gardens, there is a 25-acre parcel that abuts the back property line. It has a conservation easement on it held by the Blue Ridge Conservancy. The trail on the Conservancy property can be directly accessed from this property, which circles down to the Watauga River and back up to where you get on it -about a half-mile loop. The property has several small and one large spring on it, named Calloway Springs. The sound of Wood Thrush, lending voice to the deep woods, can be heard most every day of the year, and deer will pass through regularly. This home is filled with the natural sounds and aromas of pure nature...the neighbors up and down the street and the owners of this house are there because they want to be. You will want to be too!
