About this home

Tucked into a small neighborhood just 2 min from New Market Center and 5 min to App State & downtown Boone, this 2bed/1bath log cabin pairs traditional mountain charm with high-end modern finishes and a convenient, desirable location. As you walk up the path to the home, a wide covered front porch welcomes you, and inside, the airy great room brings living, dining & kitchen together under gorgeous vaulted wood ceilings with exposed beams. An oversized stone fireplace anchors the space, while the large front windows, new skylights (2023) and whitewashed walls keep it bright. The kitchen offers quartz counters, a gas range (2022), stainless steel appliances, a kitchen island (2026) and a breakfast bar. New hickory hardwood floors (2025) run throughout. The bathroom was completely remodeled down to the studs in 2026, now boasting new tiled floors, a tiled tub/shower, solid wood vanity, quartz countertops, a Toto wireless bidet toilet and sultry color-drenched paint. A heated, fully enclosed sunroom off the second bedroom makes a great office or reading nook. There's a small laundry room off the kitchen and a surprising amount of storage throughout. Outside, a wood picket fence (2020) encloses the "mountain flat" yard, and the shed has both electricity & heat, giving it great workshop or studio potential. The lot is south facing with room for gardens, and the flat driveway provides ample space for 3 cars. The property backs up to a large wooded tract with hiking trails, and two creeks meet at the edge of the lot (not in flood zone). The old culvert under the driveway was the only property damage sustained by Hurricane Helene, and a new culvert was installed later in 2024, with additional hardscaping rocks laid in 2026 for erosion prevention & aesthetics. This home has been well-loved and well-maintained by a very proactive homeowner! The many recent upgrades include a new furnace and tankless water heater (2020), fireplace converted to gas logs (2020), new chimney cap & flashing (2021), crawlspace encapsulation & integrated dehumidifier (2023), structural jacks & steel beams added to foundation (2023), and 3 skylights installed in the great room & 1 in primary bedroom, complete w/ solar-powered shade (2023). You'll be hard-pressed to find a home with as much to love, so come take a look today! Seller has called for final offers by 12pm, Tuesday 11/3/26.
