Looking for an alternative to a cabin? If so, this home may just be the answer! Situated in Whispering River Farm with one of the most beautiful common areas on the river and a trail along a lovely creek, this home is located in the Crumpler area of Ashe County.
With a nod toward traditional style, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath almost new home has everything we want in our homes today including 9 foot ceilings, granite counters, oil rubbed bronze fixtures, one floor living and gracious outdoor spaces. Did we mention the 3-car garage?
The location is perfect for year round or seasonal living and the access is excellent! Pastoral views surround you on a generously sized 1.5 acre lot. Because it is situated next to part of the expansive common area, it feels as if you are on double the acreage.
Fine details emerge as you walk toward the front door such as the stone walkway and porch, the 8 foot double entry doors and the barrel vaulted wood ceiling over the front door and porch.
The foyer welcomes you inside, where the home's gracious floor plan immediately becomes apparent from the archway to the living room, the vaulted ceiling, the large gathering area in front of the fireplace and the plentiful space for a card or game table with views to the back yard.
From the living room you enter the dining room where the finely detailed beamed ceiling, a tradition made modern in white, brightens and distinguishes this home from many others.
Even the half bath features fine details from a beautiful mirror and sink to beadboard paneling.
The kitchen offers ample cabinetry with a rich wood finish and granite counters, stainless appliances and informal eating space.
Just a step away you'll find the laundry room and pantry combination as well as a "mud hall", a convenient step from the front door to pull off winter boots.
Nature is a key component of mountain living, and in addition to the wonderful front porch, the back deck is a great place to spend an hour or two, whether reading a good book or enjoying an outdoor meal.
The wide-board oak hardwood flooring found throughout the house, continues into the spacious main level master bedroom.
The master bath offers a jetted tub and oversized tile shower. Note the bronze fixtures and details on the shower. Double sinks and a large walk-in closet add to the comfort of this master suite.
The master suite features beautiful hardwood floors, private bath and access to the deck. There are two more bedrooms, a full bath and a laundry room on the main level with just under 1,600 heated square feet of living space.
The covered front porch is an ideal place to spend a relaxing afternoon enjoying a serene setting and the landscaping that adds color to even cloudy days in the North Carolina mountains.
Whispering River has truly the most beautiful common area on the New River! With a fire pit, gazebo, picnic table, swing, a creek and large grassy areas and boulders the children won't be able to resist.
