Immaculate and charming cedar-sided cottage sitting over a rushing creek only five miles to Boone with quick, easy access to U.S. Route 421 South. The covered porch overlooks large boulders and pretty landscaping to the creek below. Additional outdoor areas included a handsome flagstone patio and stone walkway. The main living level flows nicely between open living, dining and kitchen spaces and has a stone/gas fireplace and wood floors. The kitchen has newer stainless steel appliances. The large master bedroom has a walk-in closet and master bath with dual vanities and a custom tiled shower. The second floor has an open and spacious foyer area leading to two guest bedrooms and a second full bath. There is ample storage and closet space throughout the home. The setting is storybook-pristine, and the property will do well as a second home or placed in a short-term rental program. The home has newer gutters, a water filtration system and a dual system heat pump. No buyer occupancy prior to July 26.
