"The Tree House" is a charming mountain home tucked away in the Little Mountain area, conveniently located minutes from Laurel Ridge Country Club. Enjoy easy year-round access on a quiet, town-maintained street shared by just two other homes. Surrounded by mature landscaping, the home enjoys pleasant mountain views, privacy, and a peaceful, serene setting—while remaining close to local amenities.
The main level features two bedrooms and updated bathrooms, along with a cozy living area centered around a wood-burning fireplace. The spacious lower-level family room provides flexible space for guests, hobbies, or relaxed gatherings, complete with spectacular built-ins ideal for even the largest book collection. An additional ensuite bedroom on the lower level includes its own fireplace, creating a warm and inviting retreat.
Outdoors, a large wrap-around deck offers the perfect place to enjoy the mountain air, and mountain views. The fenced yard is ideal for pets or gardening. A detached two-car garage adds convenience and extra storage.
Comfortable, welcoming, and full of character, this home offers a rare blend of quiet mountain living, easy access to town, and golf-cart distance to Laurel Ridge Country Club. Some furnishings negotiable
