Endless Potential on 2.5 Acres . The "skies" the limit with this 2.5-acre estate just 6 minutes to Watauga Hospital and all the amenities of Blowing Rock & Boone—yet with no restrictive constraints, hoa fees and on a state maintained road. This charming cottage-style home features a low-maintenance brick exterior and energy-efficient design, making it both practical and inviting.
Create your own mountain retreat: envision terraced outdoor living spaces, a firepit gathering area, or even a zipline through the woods. With ample land, there’s plenty of room to expand the home. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan spans three levels while still offering easy main-level living—just two steps to enter. The primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor, with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a bonus room upstairs. Every inch of space is utilized, including floored attic areas tucked into the eaves—for storage or a fun hideaway. The lower level features a separate entrance and a large flexible space for a home gym, studio, workshop, or creative pursuits. Located in sought after Blowing Rock school district! New wood floors and paint throughout.
