Warm wood details, abundant natural light, and a beautiful stone fireplace create a cozy atmosphere that reflects the home's mountain heritage. Recent updates, including a new roof in 2016 and new electrical service in 2026, provide peace of mind while leaving plenty of opportunity to restore, renovate, or simply embrace its classic charm. Outside, the possibilities are endless. Raised garden beds are ready for your next growing season, while two barns offer incredible versatility. One features a weatherproofed upper level perfect for a workshop, studio, storage, or hobbies, with a lower-level carport beneath. The second barn is ready for new life or could provide a treasure trove of reclaimed barnwood for future rustic projects. Spend your days listening to the soothing sounds of the bold creek, exploring nearly 10 acres of mountain land, or relaxing on the porch swing as you take in the peaceful views.
