242 Jitterbug Ln, Cullowhee, NC 28723

This well-loved and maintained two-story, two-bedroom, two-bath home with an upstairs bonus room rests on more than three hard-to-find, unrestricted acres near the treasured Tuckasegee River. Nestled in a quiet, established neighborhood, the home's large, south-facing windows in the living area allow lots of light and a view over your front deck, which also has a covered portion, perfect for outdoor dining. The home features unique earth-berming and passive solar for efficiency. The property is wooded and partially cleared, with winter mountain views from the deck and possible year-round views with tree-trimming. The cleared area has great potential for a second building site with mountain views and is sunny and open -- ideal for dogs to run free or for your own grove of fruit trees. A lovingly cultivated, fenced, organic garden site, mature blueberry bushes and a pear tree, a small pasture, and an iconic tin-roof barn all add to the secluded, country aesthetic of the property. Conveniently located to groceries and necessities in nearby Sylva, the home is also close to Western Carolina University, the Jackson County Greenway, and only a five-minute drive to East LaPorte River Access Park Recreation Area, where you can enjoy tubing, fly-fishing, and more on the Tuckasegee. Nearby Cedar Cliff, Bear, and Wolf lakes -- as well as Lake Glenville -- all allow for endless recreation opportunities. Area hiking trails and waterfalls will further enhance your outdoor adventures.
