About this home

Perched high above the Blue Ridge Mountains, this 2 bedroom and a loft home, makes for the perfect mountain getaway! Located inside the gated community of Leatherwood Mountains is "Idle Spur". Imagine taking in the scenic views from anywhere inside or outside your home. The open floor plan of the kitchen, living room, and loft areas bring the outside in with large windows anywhere you look. The hot tub sits above the driveway and among the trees. There are two bedrooms on the main level as well as the primary bathroom and laundry. With a queen/twin bunk bed in the guest room and lockable owner closets, this home works very well as a short term rental house as well. The stairs lead up to a sizeable loft that has both an additional sleeping area, including a queen-sized bed, and an area for cards or board games. The loft overlooks the living room and it's centerpiece, the stunning stone fireplace. The vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and rich wood tones set the mood for a relaxing experience. All stainless steel appliances are new and just waiting for you to utilize the ample counterspace in the kitchen. Leatherwood Mountains has many amenities to enjoy, including a community pavilion, pool, tennis and pickleball courts, multiple fishing ponds, and an extensive trail system. The hiking and horseback trail system is spread over almost 5000 acres and runs right below this property. Access to the trails just involves walking out of your back door! The retail businesses at the entrance to the community include equestrian facilities, a campground, state-supported trout waters, a restaurant, zipline course, and guided horseback trail rides. There is plenty to do at Leatherwood Mountains, including just sitting on the back deck and letting the majesty of the sunset to the West wash over you. If you are looking for a quaint mountain getaway with views as wide as you can imagine, then you need to see this home today! Home is being offered furnished and can be turn-key.
