    What's special

    Spacious walk-in closets

    If you love water, this house is for you. This waterfront 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits at the confluence of Camp Branch Creek and Wayah Creek in the Nantahala National Forest, just 12 minutes from downtown Franklin. A very large creekside deck with firepit and hot tub overlooks the rushing water, and mature rhododendron provide year-round greenery and privacy framing every window. The main level features the kitchen, dining area, and living room (all overlooking water) along with the primary bedroom featuring 4 closets (1 walk-in), a private deck overlooking the creek, and an en-suite bath with both a walk-in shower and soaking tub. The living room has vaulted ceilings and a stacked stone gas log fireplace. Ceiling fans in multiple rooms. Upstairs you'll find two spacious bedrooms with high vaulted ceilings and spacious walk-in closets, a loft, and a second full bathroom. Hardwood floors run through the main living areas with plush carpeting in the bedrooms and loft. A partially finished basement adds flexible space for storage, a workshop, recreation room or future build-out. Systems include an encapsulated crawlspace, propane tankless water heater, and Starlink internet. Furniture negotiable. All measurements are approximate. A one-of-a-kind setting you have to see in person. I cooperate with agents - direct buyers encouraged.
