Escape to the mountains and discover the timeless appeal of this classic A frame retreat, privately tucked away at the top of a long paved driveway surrounded by the beauty and tranquility of nature. Lovingly built and enjoyed by its original owners in the 1980s, this home captures the authentic character and craftsmanship that have made vintage A frames one of today's most sought after mountain home styles. Whether you're searching for a peaceful weekend escape, a full time residence, or your next Airbnb investment, this property offers an opportunity to create something truly special. Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the soaring two story ceilings, warm wood interiors, and dramatic floor to ceiling stone fireplace that anchor the open living and dining areas. The natural wood finishes, open loft, and expansive windows create the cozy mountain lodge atmosphere buyers dream about but rarely find. A wraparound deck extends your living space outdoors, providing the perfect setting to enjoy morning coffee, cool mountain evenings, and the sights and sounds of the surrounding forest. The main level also features the kitchen and two secondary bedrooms, while an open staircase leads to a loft overlooking the great room before entering the private primary suite. Complete with its own full bath, walk in closet, and private balcony, this inviting retreat offers a quiet place to unwind after a day spent exploring the mountains. The walkout basement provides even more flexible living space with a spacious den centered around a second wood burning stone fireplace, a built in hot tub, laundry room with utility sink, and one car garage. Whether you envision movie nights, game days, or a relaxing spa inspired space, the possibilities are endless. While the home proudly retains much of its original mountain charm, it also presents an incredible opportunity to update the finishes and create your own vision. The iconic A frame architecture, warm wood interiors, soaring ceilings, and impressive stone fireplaces provide the perfect foundation for blending vintage character with modern design. This is the kind of authentic mountain home that buyers spend years searching for and thousands of dollars trying to recreate. With three parcels, there is an option to build another home. Conveniently located just off Highway 25 and only a short drive from Greenville, you'll enjoy the peaceful feeling of being away from it all while remaining close to shopping, dining, hiking, waterfalls, and countless outdoor adventures. If you've been dreaming of an authentic mountain retreat with timeless architecture, endless character, and unlimited potential, this is your chance to make it your own.
