Grandfather views and High County breezes from the front porch, this three bedroom and two bathroom manufactured home features the highlights of mountain living. The open floor plan showcases a spacious living room and dining room with updated flooring. The kitchen has ample counter top and storage space with an additional dining area. The primary bedroom is just off the living area and the primary bathroom has a new floor and plumbing as a result of repairs performed in 2025. Two additional bedrooms are located on the opposite end of the home along with a full bathroom. The home sustained damages as a result of Tropical Storm Helene. This has resulted in a new heat pump, metal roof being installed, the dining room window and wall being repaired, and repairs to the living room and kitchen ceilings as well as the primary closet. Shared well was replaced in 2024. With over 400 square feet of outdoor deck space including a 100 square foot covered porch with long range views of Grandfather Mountain and Beech Mountain, this mountain home is memorable.
