Built in 1976, this two bedroom and one bath, mountain cottage is filled with original character and is sitting privately in the center of a lush 1.75 acre wooded property. With easy access to the 25/70 bypass, you are just a 10 minute drive to Weaverville….a beautiful mountain town that boasts several dining options, artisan style shopping and the future site of the Advent Heath Hospital, projected to open in 2027. Madison County, the "Jewel of the Blue Ridge", has so much to offer including fishing, rafting, Hot Springs, and hiking along the Appalachian Trail. A 10 minute drive in the other direction brings you into downtown Marshall along the French Broad River, another thriving mountain town that offers cafes, art studios, breweries, and plenty of live music.

Most of the heavy lifting has been done on this home, leaving the new owner with the more enjoyable task of adding the finishing touches to truly make it their own! New updates include:
Two mini-split HVAC units, new water heater, new appliances, new well head, pressure tank and UV filter system, new plumbing pipes, some updated electrical plugs/outlets and wiring, flooring system reinforced with sistered joists, new vapor barrier in crawl space, new septic line to tank, drainage trench at base of retaining wall, and both driveway entrances graded and graveled. (The kitchen floor and cabinets will need to be updated.)
In the utility room, just off the kitchen door, you’ll find the washer/dryer, water heater, and well filtration system, and storage space. A large covered front porch is perfect for morning coffee.

Sellers were working to make this their beloved mountain home, but job opportunities out of state are requiring them to relocate. This is a unique opportunity to live in a home while making it your own!
