    What's special

    Nice front porch
    this is your once in a lifetime opportunity to own this great property in the Linville Gorge. This location is exceptional. Within walking distance of hiking the Mt to Sea trail and all the Linville Gorge has to offer. The Linville River is 1/4 mile away. It is stocked with trout and is the clearest and cleanest river in the area. Lake James is one mile away and a public boat launch 2 miles. Breweries, bike paths and beaches are within a few miles. My wife and I loved this house and put expensive upgrades into it. My wife has passed away and I need to sell. The guest house is 16 x 16 and has a washer dryer and an enclosed 3/4 bathroom. Both structures had metal roofs installed in 2016. There is a fireplace with a large mantel in the main house.The two structures both sit above a slough (pronounced slew) (small stream) that runs clear throughout the year. The main house has a deck that runs the length of the house and halfway behind the guest apartment. The deck is ideal for entertaining and we have hosted many parties there. There is also a nice front porch so it is easy to pass the hours in a rocking chair with a good book or just looking out over the front lawn and numerous trees.
    What the owner loves about this home
    Location location location. The Fonta Flora community is a small quiet community located in the amazing Linville Gorge. Our cottage is 1 mile from lake James, 1/4 mile from the Linville River and 2 miles from the public boat launch on Lake James. The Mountain to Sea Trail and numerous other hiking and biking trails are right outside the door. Several cottages in the Fonta Flora community suffered damage during hurricane Helene but our cottage stayed high and dry.
