Charming farmhouse cottage on just over an acre beautifully landscaped with the bold Drake Branch Creek running through the front of the property! Enjoy beautiful mountain and pastoral views from the front porch as you sit and unwind at the end of the day tucked away on the quiet and paved Drakes Creek road. Easy paved access just minutes from Boone or Mountain City, making amenities and work close and quickly reachable. With many recent improvements such as a metal roof, paint, pex plumbing, and replacement windows, much of the work has been done to create a move in ready home. Former springhouse and cellar provides storage space. Inside you will find many of the original hardwood floors throughout the dining area, living room, and one bedroom. Two beds and a full bath on the main with an upstairs with ceiling heights of about 6' allowing two more bonus rooms that are not counted in the heated square footage but can easily be utilized to fit your needs. Full basement is heated with a propane monitor and has the washer/dryer and ample storage space. Additional adjacent pasture land with stream can be purchased at an additional price making this a great opportunity for those looking to farm, garden, and relax in the mountains! Don't miss this cute place just minutes from all of the amenities and attractions of the High Country. Come and see today!
