What the owner loves about this home
What I love most about this home is the peaceful setting. I enjoy sitting on the porch, listening to the birds and watching the wildlife—it’s quiet, calming, and truly relaxing. You can even hear the whistle of the Tweetsie Railroad in the distance, which adds a special mountain charm. It’s a great place to unwind and enjoy nature, just minutes from downtown Blowing Rock.
