About This Home
Tucked just below the storybook community of Little Switzerland and moments from the iconic Diamondback 226A, this woodland cottage is the kind of place you don’t just buy—you build a legacy in.
Set among the trees with a peaceful stream running along the side of the home, the setting feels like something out of a mountain novel—private, calming, and deeply rooted in the beauty of Western North Carolina. While the home does need some repairs, the opportunity is undeniable for the right vision.
The main level offers everyday ease with the primary bedroom and laundry conveniently located on one floor. Upstairs, a charming catwalk overlooks the living space and stone fireplace. Upstairs you will also find two additional bedrooms and a full bath.
Downstairs, the unfinished basement is a blank canvas ready to become whatever you dream—an artist’s studio, workshop, or additional living space. A separate storage building adds even more flexibility for tools, hobbies, or outdoor gear.
Whether you’re looking to restore a mountain getaway, invest in a second home, or create something truly special from the ground up, this property offers the combination of location, character, and potential. This home is ready for its next chapter!
