Come home to the quiet solitude of Cullowhee Forest, a nature-centric neighborhood with a community waterfall and deeded river access. Relax on your deck surrounded by lush native flora and enjoy lilting birdsong and cool summer breezes in the mountains. This spacious, well-built home of 3000+ square feet features a large, open-concept living area that offers a wood-burning fireplace and a wood stove that can heat the entire main level, including three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an office.
The generous lower level, with laminated veneer lumber flooring, encompasses a laundry room, two bonus rooms, an additional full bathroom, a recreation space, and ample closet storage spaces. Outdoor access leads to an insulated garden shed, a lovingly terraced backyard garden with annual plantings, and a detached two-car garage to round out the many features of this beautiful home.
Within the past two years, the home has been improved with the addition of a whole-home generator and an on-demand water heater. Kitchen updates include stainless steel appliances, leathered granite countertops, and a subway tile backsplash, while bathrooms also feature enhancements, including a walk-in tub, quartz counters, stone sinks with waterfall faucets, and decorative tiling with forest motifs.
Cullowhee Forest is a gated community created to provide the best in mountain living. Homes are situated on generous lots, allowing for space and privacy. Residents can explore quiet, wooded roads, marvel at the 75-foot Hatcher Falls, and enjoy access to the West Fork of the Tuckasegee River. At home, enjoy high-speed fiber optic internet. Nearby dining, entertainment, and recreation abound at The Local, Happ's Place, Lake Glenville's Pines Recreation Area, or the new Jackson County Aquatic Center in Cullowhee. Explore an abundance of shopping and additional dining and recreation options just a 30-minute drive away in Cashiers or Sylva. Asheville, with its regional airport, is about an hour drive, and Atlanta, Charlotte, and Greenville can all be reached in around two to three hours by car.
Virtually staged and renovated photos are included to showcase the potential of the property.
