Looking for a home in the mountains but not one engulfed by trees and more unique than the usual log cabin? This 1.84-acre property has it all, open sun-filled yards and gardens, but surrounded by woods providing privacy, yet with long-range mountain views. The house is custom-built with 2 x 6 construction, and all the built-in cabinetry was done by a local craftsman, adding lasting quality to the kitchen, butler's pantry, office, library, & bathrooms. Two pairs of exterior shutters, salvaged from a Kentucky train station, add a touch of character and story to the home's design. The concrete circular driveway adds convenience and curb appeal. The house is bordered by mature landscaping, with 21 raised bed gardens, a greenhouse, fruit trees, a grape arbor, berry bushes, & a shed to keep tools organized. The concrete wraparound porch, finished with low-maintenance aluminum railings, offers an inviting place to relax and enjoy the peaceful scenery or share a BBQ with friends. Inside, the great room features a vaulted ceiling & stone propane fireplace, while the rest of the home maintains a spacious feel with 9-foot ceilings throughout. The floors are hardwood, except for the tile bathrooms and carpeted office room. The office and library both include built-in desks and shelving (and file cabinets in the office) for organized functionality. The main bath impresses with a tile walk-in shower, separate tub, and granite double vanity. A fully finished two-car garage with high-end metal cabinets includes pull-down attic access for extra storage. Dual-pane Pella windows help with energy efficiency & a back-up generator keeps the lights on and the well water flowing in times of emergency. The crawl space under the house has been completely encapsulated. The house is conveniently located midway between Murphy & Andrews, and only 12 minutes from Erlanger Western Carolina Hospital. All appliances included, as well as two kayaks for exploring the nearby lakes and rivers.
