Nestled in the heart of Valle Crucis, this beautifully renovated 1920s farmhouse sits beside a peaceful, flowing stream and blends vintage charm with modern comfort. Inside, you'll find painted wood floors, an updated kitchen and primary bathroom, and spacious bedrooms filled with natural light. The home also features updated plumbing and electrical systems, along with a zoned heat pump that provides central heating and air for year-round comfort. Step outside and enjoy all that Valle Crucis offers—from the iconic Mast General Store and Friday afternoon concerts at Valle Crucis Park, to the Watauga River, for fly fishing and floating, and the nearby Mast Farm Inn. If you’re seeking peace, quiet, and the authentic feel of mountain life, this home delivers. Please excuse the mess—NC DOT is currently widening and paving Justus Road to enhance access to this charming retreat. Professional measurements & floor plan on the way. Home is registered on the National Clandestine Laboratory Register.
