Step back in time to this charming older home tucked away on 5 acres between West Jefferson and Boone. This farmhouse style cottage has been remodeled with updated wiring, plumbing, windows, doors, and flooring. New appliances, counters, and cabinets highlight the country kitchen. The bathroom has a new walk-in shower and cabinetry. Two ample sized bedrooms provide lodging for primary occupants and guests. A bonus room could provide space for an office, library, or extra interior storage. The walk-in pantry and laundry room off the kitchen still sports the original spring trough. Entertain outdoors on the large covered front porch and additional open deck space. The home is surrounded by 5 acres of woods and fields that have the potential for a mini farm and plenty of space for gardening. The land is flat to gently sloped. An old barn remains on the property and may be able to be salvaged for use, or the barn boards could be repurposed. There may be other build sites available on the property, presenting the opportunity to utilize the older home while building a new one. This property represents affordable mountain living in a desirable location for full time enjoyment, a second home, or an investment property.
