    Escape to the beauty and tranquility of the Western North Carolina mountains, where breathtaking views, rustic charm and inviting living spaces come together in this private Waynesville retreat. Surrounded by the natural splendor of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this mountain cabin offers a peaceful sanctuary equally suited for a full-time residence, weekend getaway or investment opportunity. Designed to embrace its picturesque setting, the home features an expansive wraparound deck and generous covered porch, inviting you to savor morning coffee overlooking the mountains, unwind in the fresh mountain air or simply enjoy the ever-changing scenery throughout the seasons. Inside, the spacious great room welcomes you with the warmth and character of a striking stone fireplace, creating a natural gathering place for intimate evenings, entertaining friends or relaxing after a day exploring the mountains. The home's rustic appeal and comfortable atmosphere capture the essence of relaxed mountain living. The generously proportioned primary bedroom offers abundant closet space and additional lockable storage, while ladder-style stairs lead to a charming guest loft, providing flexible bonus space beyond the home's stated square footage due to ceiling-height limitations. The primary bath connects conveniently to the laundry area, complemented by an additional half bath. For those who enjoy hands-on projects, a dedicated workshop platform within the basement/crawlspace offers a practical space for hobbies, tools and creative pursuits. Previously operated as a vacation rental and currently enjoyed as a primary residence, this versatile property presents an appealing opportunity for those seeking a personal mountain escape or potential income-producing retreat, subject to applicable regulations. Whether gathering around the fireplace, enjoying the mountain vistas from the covered porch or exploring the natural beauty and attractions of nearby Waynesville, this inviting cabin offers a wonderful opportunity to experience the timeless appeal of Western North Carolina mountain living.
