Nestled just ten minutes from the vibrant energy of downtown Boone, this well maintained three-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch-style home offers the perfect balance of mountain seclusion and modern convenience on a private 1.3-acre lot. Perched elegantly to capture a narrow long-range mountain view, the residence features 1,368 heated square feet of bright living space complemented by two decks, one covered for rainy afternoons and one open for sun-drenched mornings, both boasting fresh paint and a crisp finish. The exterior has been recently refreshed with a professional soft wash on the roof and siding, ensuring the home shines against its lush, wooded backdrop. A standout feature is the expansive lower-level garage and basement, which is fully heated and entirely above grade, providing a rare opportunity to easily finish the space into a custom suite, home office, or gym while offering an abundance of existing storage. With a paved driveway for easy year-round access and a layout that has been deeply loved and cared for, this property serves as a pristine blank canvas ready for you to add your personal touch to a classic High Country retreat.
