    What's special

    That Tiny House You’ve Been Dreaming Of... It’s Real—and It's Here! Tucked into a private, mostly wooded 1.2-acre setting, this absolutely charming tiny home is the ultimate getaway, and it is offered fully furnished and ready for you to enjoy today. The huge open deck is a showstopper: imagine string lights overhead, tents pitched for sleepovers, laughter echoing through the trees, and s’mores around the fire. The access is a short paved driveway to a large parking area, where you descend a gentle sectioned staircase to the deck and the home. Enter through the screened porch to the living area with a vaulted ceiling and wood floors. The living area has a full sized couch and large flat screen TV where you can watch the nature camera feeds. There is a full kitchen with a pull up eating bar, and a full bath. Upstairs is the sleeping area with full ceiling height for standing up, and a huge picture window you look through from the bed. Even though you will want to be unplugged, you don't have to be--the home is service by full fiber optics for Internet and TV. The home is well built and was fully permitted, with hardiboard siding and a two bedroom septic system. Heat and air is a hotel style window unit. And now, for the magic: the whimsical network of stairways. In addition to the stairway from the parking area, there is a second set of stairs that winds from the deck through the woods, leading you on a peaceful walk dotted with bird feeders and woodland charm, all the way to the lower edge of the property, which is bordered by NC park service land. It feels like your own private nature park—quiet, serene, and enchanting. Located on Buffalo Cove Road in Lenoir, you're just 6 minutes from the Buffalo Mercantile & Café, 11 minutes to the popular Happy Valley Filling Station brewery, 20 to downtown Lenoir, and 30 to Blowing Rock. This would make a very popular vacation rental, but you’ll probably want to keep it for yourself.
