Your Own Cozy Mountain Getaway in Franklin, NC! Tucked among the trees in a peaceful mountain neighborhood, this charming 2-bedroom cottage offers the warmth, character, and relaxed lifestyle that make Western North Carolina so special! Featuring beautiful hardwood floors, exposed ceiling beams, warm wood accents, and a cozy gas fireplace, the inviting main-level living space feels like a true mountain retreat. Step outside onto the spacious covered deck overlooking the wooded surroundings, where you can enjoy morning coffee, listen to the birds, or unwind after a day exploring the mountains. The main level offers convenient everyday living, while the lower level, accessed separately from outside, features a generous recreation room heated by a propane heater, includes laundry facilities, and an additional bathroom installed (without permits). The basement provides lots of flex space ready to make your own. Imagine converting the basement to a man cave, teen hangout, craft or sewing room, activity center, home office space or even a lockout apartment. Previously used as an active short-term rental before transitioning to a long-term rental, this well-maintained property offers flexibility as a full-time residence, vacation getaway, or potential investment. A brand-new roof was installed in October 2026! Situated on a manageable 0.22-acre lot, additional features include a single carport and HOA-maintained neighborhood roads with annual dues of just $400. Whether you're searching for a weekend escape or a cozy place to call home, this inviting mountain cottage offers an opportunity to enjoy the simple pleasures of mountain living at a great price.
