Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort in this charming and meticulously maintained 1930s farmhouse, perfectly situated on a sunny .64 acre lot conveniently between Boone and West Jefferson, and less than a mile and a half to the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. Bursting with character, the home showcases original wood floors, pickled plank walls, and beautifully preserved craftsman style doors and hardware. Thoughtful updates bring peace of mind and convenience, including a walk in closet, brand new ADA compliant bathroom, new roof, leaf-filter gutters, new water heater, and refrigerator, and a new pressure switch on the well. A formal dining room adds classic elegance, while multiple covered porches and a sunny patio with fire pit invite you to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Unique rock outcroppings add natural charm to the landscape, and the grassy yard is great for gardening, pets, or play. A wired storage shed offers additional functionality. Recent inspections including a WDIR, chimney inspection with camera, and well quality report underscore the exceptional care this property has received. This is your opportunity to own a timeless mountain retreat, thoughtfully updated and full of Appalachian heritage.
