About This Home
Perched in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this beautifully updated Blowing Rock retreat showcases long-range mountain views, exceptional outdoor living, and extensive recent improvements, creating the perfect blend of comfort, style, and mountain living. Designed to embrace its natural surroundings, the inviting outdoor living area features a wood-burning fireplace, offering the ideal setting for entertaining, relaxing with family and friends, or enjoying cool mountain evenings beneath the stars. Inside, abundant natural light fills the thoughtfully designed floor plan, enhanced by refreshed interior paint, tasteful kitchen updates, and inviting living spaces that feel both warm and sophisticated.
Recent improvements include a new roof installed in 2025 and a newly fenced yard, providing peace of mind and added functionality. An exceptional value, the sellers have already paid the $8,500 HOA assessment for the community repaving project beginning August 5, allowing the next owner to enjoy this significant improvement without the added expense. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Blowing Rock, this property offers the perfect combination of breathtaking mountain views, privacy, modern updates, and convenient access to shopping, dining, outdoor recreation, and the High Country's year-round attractions.
