CALLING FOR "BEST OFFER" BY NOON SEPTEMBER 14, 2025. Welcome to a one-of-a-kind piece of Haywood County history, the former Davis Chapel, now a beautifully reimagined home in the scenic heart of Iron Duff. Thoughtfully restored, the property seamlessly blends timeless character with modern comfort, all set against sweeping mountain views. Original details such as preserved stained glass windows, wide-plank floors, and solid wood doors are seamlessly complemented by stylish industrial accents. The primary suite, once the Chapel’s fellowship hall, now offers a spa-like retreat with antique vanity sinks, tile floors, and a walk-in stone-tiled shower. The spacious kitchen features an apron sink, granite countertops, tile floors, and a vintage GE enamel stovetop/oven. A bright loft provides a flexible bonus space and an additional second bedroom. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a covered dining patio complete with original church pew seating, a private fire pit, and a gazebo perfectly positioned for sunset views. Fully furnished and ready to enjoy, this rare property is more than just a home—it’s a unique opportunity to own a storied landmark where history and style meet. Perfect for full-time, part-time living, or a VRBO, or Event venue.
