A brand-new roof and new gas stove add valuable peace of mind, while the two-car carport provides easy year-round entry and protection from the weather. Inside, the main level features a welcoming living room with fireplace, hardwood flooring, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a spacious kitchen with ample cabinetry and room to gather. Just off the kitchen, a large family room with a gas-burning fireplace creates a wonderful second living space. Use it for movie nights, game days, a cozy reading room, a playroom, or a relaxed hangout after a day spent on the river. The home offers three bedrooms and two up-to-date bathrooms. One of the bathrooms includes the laundry area with washer and dryer access, along with a convenient door to the backyard. This space can easily function as a mudroom-style drop zone after working in the garden, tending the chickens, letting the pets out, or coming in from outdoor projects. Step outside and you’ll find the kind of backyard people dream about when they think of moving to the mountains. There is open grassy space for kids and pets to play, blueberry bushes, grapevine, and a chicken coop already in place for your country-living plans. Start a garden, raise chickens, host summer cookouts, or simply enjoy the quiet pace of life with space to breathe. The lower-level basement offers multiple entry points and excellent storage potential, making it ideal for tools, outdoor gear, bikes, kayaks, seasonal items, workshop space, or future hobby use. This level also includes a wood-burning fireplace and a wood stove that can help heat the home, providing a valuable additional heat source during the cooler mountain months. With the New River nearby, having extra storage for adventure gear is a major bonus. Located in the heart of Ashe County, this home keeps you close to everything that makes the area special — river adventures, mountain views, small-town dining, local shops, art galleries, festivals, and the welcoming charm of downtown West Jefferson.
