Opportunities like this don't come along often in Hound Ears—and buyers who know the market will recognize exactly why. This beautiful Lakes condo checks a list of boxes that almost no single property in the community can match: true lock-and-leave living with zero maintenance, a private residential elevator, no neighbor above or below, a dedicated golf-cart garage, two covered parking spaces, and an available club membership that lets you skip the waiting list entirely and step straight into access to championship golf, tennis, pickleball, swimming, fitness, and both fine and casual dining. The residence lives up to every bit of that pedigree. The covered deck frames sweeping golf course, lake, and mountain views. Inside, a striking stone fireplace anchors the main living area, surrounded by tasteful, high-end updates throughout. The remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an adjoining dining space. A fully appointed downstairs great room with a built-in Murphy bed, dedicated office, and wet bar handles guests and remote work with equal ease. The primary suite offers a beautifully updated bath and generous closet space, with a well-separated guest bedroom and bath for added privacy. Perfectly positioned between Blowing Rock, Boone, and Banner Elk within the gated Hound Ears community, additional amenities include scenic hiking trails, a community garden, Watauga River access, Grover's Dog Park, and peaceful gathering spaces throughout the grounds. For buyers who know what's hard to find—this is it. Being sold furnished with a few exceptions.
