New ListingDiscover an exceptional four-season mountain retreat at 689 Sugar Mountain Drive, ideally located across from the Sugar Mountain Golf Course and just minutes from the slopes of Sugar Mountain Resort. Combining timeless log cabin character with refined furnishings, generous indoor and outdoor living spaces, and an established rental history, this fully furnished, turnkey property offers an outstanding opportunity in the heart of the North Carolina High Country. A gently flowing mountain stream borders the side and rear of the property, providing the soothing sounds of a babbling brook and a peaceful backdrop for outdoor living. The beautifully maintained cabin is easily accessible from a city-maintained paved road and offers ample parking-an especially desirable feature for a Sugar Mountain vacation home or investment property. Inside, the warm and inviting great room is anchored by a dramatic stone gas fireplace, while the open loft above provides a cozy retreat for relaxing or accommodating additional guests. The thoughtfully appointed kitchen features granite countertops, sleek black stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry and a spacious pantry. Its seamless connection to the covered porch and grilling area makes entertaining effortless. The main level offers a spacious primary suite with a private ensuite bath and walk-in closet, along with an additional bedroom and conveniently located full bath. The lower level is designed for recreation and relaxation, featuring an expansive family and game room with direct access to the hot tub deck and an additional covered patio. A generous bunk room, full bath and dedicated laundry room complete this level. The oversized one-car garage is currently arranged as an additional game room, creating even more flexible gathering space. Outdoor living is elevated by a custom-built stone fireplace and flagstone patio-an idyllic setting for evenings beneath the stars accompanied by the gentle sounds of the stream. With its sought-after Sugar Mountain location, proximity to golf, skiing, dining and year-round recreation, this luxury furnished log cabin delivers the perfect blend of mountain serenity, convenience and proven rental appeal. NOTE: There is a 232 sq.ft. difference between tax records and professional measurements. The tax records included the garage, which is not HLA.
