About This Property
Creekside Charm in a Peaceful Mountain Setting. Escape to tranquility in this utterly charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom creekside cottage, perfectly blending vintage character with thoughtful updates. Tucked away in a serene location between Balsam and Sylva, just down the road from the Historic Balsam Mountain Inn, this home offers a true mountain sanctuary.
Step inside to discover a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The farmhouse kitchen is a true delight, centered around a vintage stove/oven that perfectly captures the home's unique character. The dining room soars with beautiful wooden cathedral ceilings, creating an airy and rustic feel.
Continue into the living room, where a coastal-inspired palette meets the warmth of a gas log fireplace, making it the ideal spot for relaxation. The charm extends outdoors, where the home boasts a new copper metal roof installed in 2025 with LeafGuard Gutter System—adding both beauty and longevity. Enjoy your morning coffee on the freshly painted private porch off the primary suite.
