Tucked into the quiet rhythm of the mountains, where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings settle beneath painted skies, 65 Happy Hollow Rd invites you to slow down and live with intention. Set on 2.32 unrestricted acres of usable, gently rolling land, this two-story barndominium offers a rare blend of practicality and possibility—whether you're dreaming of a mini-farm, a peaceful retreat, or an income-producing investment. Located in the Brush Creek area of Yancey County less than 15 miles (right around 20 minutes) from the Town of Burnsville & just minutes away from access to North Toe River for fishing, tubing & more. Enjoy fenced pasture and garden space, a small flowing stream, and open areas ready for animals, planting, or simply breathing room. It’s the kind of place where your days can be shaped by nature, not noise. Inside, the home offers flexibility across two levels, ideal for multi-generational living, rental income, or hosting guests. The upper level has been thoughtfully refreshed with a bright, updated kitchen (2022) featuring stainless steel appliances, new cabinetry, island, and updated flooring—creating a welcoming heart of the home that opens to the deck and mountain views. The main level offers a second living space with washer & dryer, full bathroom with tiled walk-in shower, bedroom & a partial kitchen already equipped with propane hookup, making it easy to convert into a fully independent living area. Comfort meets efficiency with mini-split systems on both levels, a cozy Buck stove for supplemental heat, and a tankless propane water heater—designed for year-round living with ease. Beyond the home, the property continues to deliver with a detached 2-car metal garage, attached workshop/studio with electricity—perfect for artists, hobbies, storage, or creative pursuits This property has already proven its versatility, having been used for full-time living and long-term rental, with clear potential for short-term vacation rental income as well. For added peace of mind—no known storm damage from Helene, with FEMA-supported repairs completed on the shared private road in October 2025. Whether you’re planting roots, building a homestead, or expanding your investment portfolio…Happy Hollow has the potential you're seeking and more!
