Completely remodeled and move-in ready, this cute as a button 2-bedroom, 2-bath contemporary cottage combines classic charm with stylish modern updates. Conveniently located with easy access off Hwy 64 and Hwy 281 in Sapphire, the home sits on a flat lot with a gravel driveway. Originally built in 1965, the cottage has been extensively updated with new LVP flooring, fresh paint, renovated bathrooms, updated plumbing, stainless steel appliances, new windows, SmartSide-style siding, barn doors, and energy-efficient mini-splits (2025). A metal roof was added in 2018 for added peace of mind. Inside, you’ll find a comfortable living room plus a cozy den with a wood stove. Enjoy the perfect weather from the front porch swing. Offered vacant and move-in ready, this property would make a wonderful full-time home, mountain getaway, vacation rental, or long-term investment property. Affordable, updated cottages in this convenient Sapphire location are hard to find — especially with no HOA fees — so don’t wait. This one is ready to enjoy from day one and likely won’t last long! Furniture is negotiable.
