Tucked away on over 9 private acres in the mountains of Bakersville, this beautifully renovated upscale home offers the perfect pairing of privacy and convenience. With 5 spacious bedrooms and 3 stunning bathrooms, every inch of this home has been thoughtfully redesigned with modern comfort in mind.
The show-stopping kitchen is truly the heart of the home, featuring stylish cabinetry, premium finishes, abundant workspace, and an open layout ideal for entertaining and everyday living. The three full bathrooms are equally impressive.
Step outside and soak in the peaceful mountain setting from your private hot tub, included with the home — the perfect place to unwind after a day of work or a long day out exploring the mountains.
Enjoy the serenity of mountain living while still being just minutes from the Appalachian Trail and within approximately an hour of both Johnson City and Asheville. A garage adds practicality and storage, while the expansive acreage gives you room to roam, relax, or simply enjoy the surroundings.
Sure, you could buy land and spend the time, money, and stress building a new home — or you could move right into this completely transformed property for under $200 per square foot. Upscale mountain living without the wait.
