Nestled in the picturesque Hickory Nut Gorge Valley, this charming home offers mountain views and easy access to nearby trailheads, with Asheville and Hendersonville just a short drive away. The main level features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a beautifully remodeled kitchen with new cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Vinyl plank flooring adds a modern touch throughout. Enjoy morning coffee on the private deck off the main bedroom, or host gatherings on the spacious upper-level deck overlooking a peaceful backyard and small stream. The finished basement has a separate entry, making it perfect for guests or rental potential, and includes 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom with heated floors, a large laundry room, and ample storage. According to the owner, the home was rebuilt from the foundation up approximately 14 years ago, offering peace of mind with many recent updates. This move-in-ready gem blends comfort, style, and nature in a truly unique mountain setting.
