What's special
This home would be a great starter home or a wonderful place for a second home in the beautiful NC mountains! The Blue Ridge
parkway is at your doorstep. You've only to peer out your kitchen window for gorgeous long distant views of the mountains. The community offers something for everyone: great shopping in unique locally owned shops, mingle with locals at the coffee shops, play golf or pickleball or tennis, lots of hiking trails. There is even a skateboard park. Don't forget kayaking, canoeing, fishing and all kinds of river activities. The Arts Council sponsors concerts, tours and so many activities for your entertainment. There are so many wineries in the area and a local brewery on main street. You'll love the cottage finish accents, tiled shower, finished wood ceiling in bath and laundry. There's lots of storage in the basement (during a recent showing, on rainy day, water was present in the basement)**. A fenced yard for your pets. You have to see to believe the charm of this updated 1959 home. Update: Price adjusted to compensate for repairs to basement water. Estimate of repairs available.
