Location! Location! Location! Check out this authentic mountain cabin with all the upgrades! Approximately a 10-minute drive to downtown Blowing Rock nestled in the BlackBerry Creek area. Picture sitting on your front porch, listening to the tranquil sounds of Blackberry Creek. This property is made for a weekend getaway, a summer stay, or an affordable primary residence so near Blowing Rock! Opportunities as an investment property are the icing on the cake! Updates include a brand-new kitchen with quartz countertops, new stainless-steel appliances, new range hood and dishwasher. Beautifully refinished 6-inch wide, plank pine floors original to the home. One bedroom on the main floor and a 300 sq ft loft to use for so many things – bedroom, work out area, home office, media room. Other features include a new gas fireplace, water heater, light fixtures, and electrical updates. There is even a vapor barrier in the crawlspace for peace of mind. Over 1100 sq ft of usable space (see notes below). Outside, an outbuilding—complete with a brand-new roof (August 2025)—offers plenty of space for tools, outdoor gear, or extra storage. How about a He Shed or She Shed? Every corner has been thoughtfully finished, making this cabin truly move-in ready. The home offers the best of both worlds: privacy in a serene, wooded setting in which you can hear Blackberry Creek, yet only 10 minutes from downtown Blowing Rock’s restaurants, shops, and year-round attractions. Your dream of owning this cozy cabin nestled in the beautiful tranquil mountain setting is a rare find.
Measuring criteria state nothing lower than 7' ceiling can be counted as HLA. Additional loft area adds 84 usable feet to square footage. Bedroom and mudroom cannot be counted as heated living space but add an additional 166 sq ft making it 1137 sq ft of usable space. Whether you’re dreaming of a weekend escape, a full-time cozy residence, or a smart rental investment, this cabin is ready to welcome you.
