Fabulous Gorge and Grandfather Mountain views from this quintessential Misty Mountain cottage! Vaulted T&G ceilings in the living and dining areas with an elegant floor-to-ceiling wood-burning stone fireplace. A tastefully updated kitchen features plenty of cabinetry space, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, pantry, and plenty of natural light. Wood floors throughout and plenty of windows looking out over the long-range views. There is a covered porch on the main level to take in the fresh air and views of the Gorge and Grandfather Mountain. The ensuite primary bedroom is located on the main level, along with a powder room for guests. There is a secondary living area on the main level, perfect for a recreational or sitting room. Two additional guest bedrooms are located in the lower level with a shared full bath. The lower-level deck is screened in, making it a great space for additional outdoor relaxation. Enjoy the firepit in the private backyard featuring long-range gorge views. A small game room has been added in the utility space. The cottage has been meticulously maintained and updated over the years. Misty Mountain is a quaint, highly-sought neighborhood located just 10 minutes away from Main Street, Blowing Rock, for shopping and dining, and the Blue Ridge Parkway for views and hiking. This would make an excellent full-time, second home, or vacation rental. There is an additional half lot that is included, located below the home that allows for plenty of additional parking and view control, along with an additional view easement in place on the other half of the lot to the street below.
