The Cottage at Chestnut Hill is a charming, 2 BD/1 BA retreat nestled on 1.25 acres, just minutes from downtown Burnsville. This updated and move-in-ready cottage has been lovingly maintained and offers the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. Start your day on one of two inviting porches, listening to the soothing sounds of birdsong and a small creek. Evenings are best spent by the firepit, where stories are shared with family and friends. The land invites your green thumb to create flourishing gardens or simply enjoy the open space that’s all your own. An outbuilding, complete with power, stands ready to be transformed into a studio or workshop. The perfect blend of solitude and accessibility, you’ll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle, but you’re just 45 minutes from Asheville and an hour from Johnson City. No storm damage!
