Welcome to Royal Oak #135! This recently remodeled condo is within walking distance to downtown Blowing Rock for restaurants, shopping, garden parks, and a great recreation park. It features two master bedrooms with full baths, a quiet 3rd floor location, and of course there is always Blowing Rock's cool summer days at ~3,600 foot elevation!
This condo has been a successful VRBO vacation rental since 2008 and is one of only a few Blowing Rock condo complexes approved for short-term rentals. Major remodeling was completed in 2024 with neutral decor to please a variety of vacationers. All contents are included so it's pretty much turn-key unless you wish to make changes. If desired, the owner will be happy to help transition this income-producing property.
The new (2024) kitchen cabinets/counters were expanded to provide more functional space with all new appliances, including a stacked washer/dryer set and hot water heater in the utility closet. Each bedroom features a full bath and queen-sized bed. The primary bedroom includes a vertical dresser, large closet, and a lockable owner's closet to keep supplies. The second bedroom includes a 47" HDTV, horizontal dresser, and walk-in closet. The living room features a 49" HDTV, console cabinet, ventless propane fireplace, and a vaulted ceiling to offer spaciousness that can only be had with a third-floor unit. Outside on the front balcony is a small storage closet.
The Royal Oak community includes a spacious clubhouse with exercise equipment and there is also a stream-side picnic area.
