Charming Historic Farmhouse in Banner Elk – More Than Meets the Eye! Listed at 491 sq ft due to ceiling heights under 7 feet, this home actually offers over 1,500 sq ft of functional, inviting living space that has been lovingly used and enjoyed for generations. While today’s standards may not count every inch, you certainly will—from cozy bedrooms to charming gathering spaces, there's room to live, relax, and create new memories. Step into the heart of Banner Elk history with this captivating early 1900s farmhouse, nestled just minutes from the town center. Built before the town was even incorporated, this home offers the warmth of a bygone era, thoughtfully maintained and full of character you won’t find in modern builds. Fully furnished and ready to enjoy, this home is ideal as a weekend retreat, short-term rental, or full-time residence for those who appreciate craftsmanship, charm, and simpler living. Picture mornings on the front porch, afternoons exploring nearby shops and trails, and evenings around the table in a space that feels like home the moment you walk in. If you're looking for something unique with soul, substance, and a story—you’ve found it. Don’t let the square footage on paper stop you from experiencing all this home truly offers.
