About This Home

Serene mountain retreat on 4.3 private acres just 13 miles from Asheville and minutes to Lake Lure, offering both lifestyle appeal and strong short-term rental potential.

This 2-bedroom cabin features approximately 1,816 square feet with warm wood interiors, a stone wood-burning fireplace, and an inviting open living space that flows seamlessly onto a covered upper deck-perfect for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful wooded setting.

The home lives larger than its bedroom count with a fully finished lower level offering flexible space for guests, recreation, or additional living (not counted as a bedroom). Currently utilized as a vacation rental, the layout is ideal for hosting and maximizing occupancy.

Multiple covered decks provide year-round outdoor enjoyment, while the private, wooded acreage offers the seclusion buyers seek without sacrificing convenience to Asheville, Lake Lure, and Chimney Rock.

Whether you're searching for a personal getaway, full-time residence, or income-producing property, this cabin delivers versatility, privacy, and proven rental appeal in a highly desirable Western North Carolina location.
