Location! Location! Location! Discover the charm of an authentic mountain cabin with all the right upgrades, nestled in the peaceful Blackberry Creek area and just approximately 10 minutes from downtown Blowing Rock. The exterior has been freshly painted a beautiful charcoal color, replacing the previous blue, and the sellers are completing additional landscaping. New photos will be added once the landscaping is finished.
Picture yourself relaxing on the front porch while listening to the tranquil sounds of Blackberry Creek. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway, a summer retreat, an affordable full-time residence, or an investment property, this cozy cabin offers an incredible opportunity just 10 minute drive to Blowing Rock.
Inside, you'll find a beautifully updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, new stainless-steel appliances, a new range hood, and a new dishwasher. The original 6-inch-wide plank pine floors have been beautifully refinished, adding warmth and character throughout the home. The main level includes a bedroom, while the approximately 300-square-foot loft provides flexible space for a second sleeping area, home office, workout area, media room, or whatever suits your needs.
Additional improvements include a new gas fireplace, new water heater, updated light fixtures, and electrical updates. A vapor barrier has also been installed in the crawlspace, providing added peace of mind.
Outside, you'll find an outbuilding with a brand-new roof installed in August 2025, offering plenty of room for tools, outdoor equipment, or additional storage. Turn it into your own He Shed or She Shed—the possibilities are endless!
The property offers the best of both worlds: a secluded, wooded mountain setting where you can hear Blackberry Creek, yet you're only about 10 minutes from the restaurants, shops, and year-round attractions of downtown Blowing Rock.
Square footage note: Per measuring criteria, areas with ceilings below 7 feet cannot be counted as heated living area (HLA). The loft provides approximately 84 additional usable square feet, while the bedroom and mudroom add approximately 166 square feet of usable space that cannot be included in HLA. Altogether, the property offers approximately 1,137 square feet of usable space.
Every corner of this cabin has been thoughtfully finished, creating a warm, inviting, and move-in-ready mountain retreat. Whether you're dreaming of a weekend escape, a cozy full-time residence, or a smart rental investment, this special cabin is ready to welcome you home.
