These properties do not come on the market often. You know, the houses along the storied old streets of Blowing Rock where you slow down to peer up the driveway just wondering what is up there. You know, the house with a view of the Johns River Gorge, Grandfather Mountain, Hawks Bill and Mount Mitchell, but you'll never imagine what it's like to be one of the lucky few to drive up to the cool hemlock and hardwood shaded drive where decades of memories have been made and lived out like a sweet southern novel. You will be dazzled by the grand living room clad in Philippine Mahogany, 10-foot ceilings with picture windows and Dutch doors opening up to the vista. Hang your family photo on the huge mantle of the Elk Stone fireplace. The main level bedroom walls are white ash and the house has wood floors throughout. This home has been lovingly and impeccably maintained by the same family for nearly 70 years. Now it's time to let another family take the keys and love "Windswept." Let these majestic Blue Ridge Mountains steal your heart, draw you in, and bring you home.
