Set on FLAT, usable acreage with easy year-round access, this well-equipped mountain cabin offers the comfort of true ONE-STORY living, with ramp access at the rear of the home for added convenience. The two bedrooms, laundry room, kitchen, great room, and everyday living spaces are thoughtfully arranged on one level. Upstairs, the loft includes its own full bath, creating flexible space for guests, a home office, media room, hobby area, or a second living area.
The property is also being offered with an impressive maintenance equipment package, including a JOHN DEERE zero-turn mower, KAWASAKI MULE ATV with snow plow, trailer, DR trimmer, and chipper/shredder — making it easier for the next owner to enjoy the property from day one.
A nearly 1,200 sq. ft.DETACHED GARAGE and separate WORKSHOP, both with electricity, offer outstanding space for vehicles, tools, hobbies, equipment, and mountain-life storage. Inside, vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, and an open great room create the classic cabin feel. After a day of skiing, snow tubing, or exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway, warm up by the Buck Stove or unwind on the covered wraparound porch and enjoy the cool mountain air. Just 10 minutes from the Parkway, 5 minutes from Jonas Ridge Snow Tubing, and a short drive to Banner Elk, Newland, and the ski mountains, this location makes it easy to enjoy the area in every season. STARLINK internet and a whole-home Generac generator add comfort and peace of mind, making this more than a cabin — it’s a ready-to-enjoy High Country lifestyle.
