1211 Silverstone Rd, Zionville, NC 28698

This is a beautiful four acre farm with an entirely renovated mountain home located so close to Boone.&nbsp; Set under the broad brow of Tater Hill to the east, this farm boasts five fenced acres of open pasture, a large barn, root cellar and cozy getaway mountain home entirely upgraded and refurbished.&nbsp; Its location is so convenient to Boone just off Hwy 421, a short walk from the Valley Grocery at Tater Hill Road.&nbsp; The first thing I liked about this property is the utterly flat home site.&nbsp; That is a rarity in the mountains and worth a great deal for ease of parking, additional construction as well as outdoor recreation and entertaining.&nbsp; Driving up you&rsquo;ll notice the fenced-in pasture and farm gate separating the mountain meadow and large barn from the driveway and yard.&nbsp; Let&rsquo;s go see the home.&nbsp; Walking up you&rsquo;ll note the wrap-around covered porch.&nbsp; This is a godsend in spring, summer and fall when we live outdoors up here.&nbsp; And standing on the porch deck when you look around you&rsquo;ll be astounded at the magnificent views of Tater Hill Mountain soaring thousands of feet above.&nbsp; As we enter the classic art glass door we step into a gracious vestibule containing the laundry room, separate sink and to the right a half bath.&nbsp; Through a second glass door we first glimpse and then enter the entirely renovated kitchen.&nbsp; This kitchen is a pleasure with its granite counters, polished hardwood floors, new appliances and sheer spaciousness.&nbsp; As in most more newly designed homes it is an &ldquo;open plan&rdquo; with the kitchen communicating easily to the great room. &nbsp;The baked enamel sink is a beauty as are all the many cabinets above.&nbsp; Beyond the kitchen is a comfortable breakfast area and ship&rsquo;s ladder beyond leading up to the large sleeping loft.&nbsp; From the kitchen counter area we can glance across at those relaxing in the very spacious great room.&nbsp; Beyond this is the second bedroom.&nbsp; Between the kitchen and great room is the ladder up, another half bath and then the entrance to the master suite.&nbsp; All the tongue and groove gives off the scent of woodwork that so completes the mountain ambience.&nbsp; Walking through the large master bedroom we turn into the almost equally large master bath.&nbsp; This contains a big, deep whirlpool tub, stand up shower and dual &ldquo;his and her&rdquo; sinks.&nbsp; Reentering the great room from the master suite we can step onto the front porch through the formal front door and enjoy a mountain vista and fresh air looking back toward Boone.&nbsp; Across Silverstone Road is another good size chunk of land which goes with the home and would be ideal for parking or garage.The adjoining four acres runs from the fence adjacent the parking area and gently climbs the hillside until your views of Tater Hill overwhelm you.&nbsp; This pasture would be ideal for horses or cattle.&nbsp; The large barn is everything anyone doing any farming would want.&nbsp; It is two stories and has plenty of room for sheltering horses and equipment.&nbsp; On the opposite side of the home is the root cellar for preserving all that you grow.If you&rsquo;re looking for some space to stretch out, ride your horses, plant your garden and then retire to admire the massive mountains by day and celestial firmament by night, I think you may have found it.&nbsp; And what a wonderful community of neighbors to boot!&nbsp; Come home to Cove Creek Farm and leave your urban cares and worries behind.&nbsp;DIRECTIONS TO COVE CREEK FARM&nbsp;FROM BOONE&nbsp;<span style="font-size: large;
