About this home

BACK ON THE MARKET! With no fault of the sellers. Some homes offer a place to live. Others offer a lifestyle. Nestled on 1.1 private acres, this charming mountain retreat invites you to slow down, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and soak in breathtaking long-range views from the comfort of your own home. With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,248 square feet, every inch is designed for cozy mountain living without sacrificing comfort. Main level offers an open living space from the living area, dining area, kitchen, and main level bedroom. Upper level has the primary suite for ultimate privacy. Picture yourself enjoying coffee on the porch as the sun rises over the Blue Ridge Mountains, spending your afternoons exploring everything Boone has to offer, hiking Howard's Knob and the Blue Ridge Parkway, and ending each evening watching the mountains fade into a spectacular sunset. Whether you're searching for a weekend escape, a full-time residence, or a vacation home, 185 Harper Trail is the kind of property buyers wait for. Mountain homes with this combination of views, privacy, acreage, and location are becoming harder to find. If you've been dreaming of owning your own piece of the High Country, this is your opportunity. Adjoining lot can be purchased as well. Now under recent appraised value!!
