...Peaceful Setting with Views & Outbuildings
Perched atop a quiet hill, surrounded by unbeatable distant mountain views and reveling in the serenity of a sprawling 6.52-acres is a gorgeous family home with undeniable opportunity. Thanks to three large outbuildings and a new in-law suite/apartment, this property has as much potential as it does luxury and style. Enjoy it all while conveniently just 5 minutes of Daniel Boone schools, Immaculate Conception Academy and High Point Baptist Academy — home of the world-famous High Point Christian Summer Camp. Venture up the long driveway to the beautiful covered front entry with a welcoming, 51 ft. wrap around front porch where you can catch every unbelievable sunset. Inside, you’re greeted by the dramatic, 2-story foyer with hardwood flooring that flows to the elegant dining room and main living areas. The renovated kitchen is a modern chef’s dream with massive, eat-in center island with electric cooktop, stunning quartz countertops with tile backsplash, oversized stainless steel farm sink, built-in wine fridge, dishwasher, undermount microwave, and double oven, tile flooring, and breakfast room area with slider doors to back deck. The incredible great room is sure to impress with a soaring cathedral, wood ceiling highlighted by exposed beams and an awesome floor-to-ceiling stone, gas fireplace flanked by large picture windows, plus wood floors, built-in speakers and another access to the large back deck. Enjoy the convenience of a first floor Master Suite with a huge walk-in closet, boasting built-ins and an island with granite top, and a private bath with double vanity, walk-in, glass shower, and Whirlpool tub with tile surround. On the second floor are three additional bedrooms with angled ceilings that share a full bath with tile flooring, tub/shower with glass slider door, and a double vanity. You’ll also find access to the brand new, 1-BR/1-BA apartment with a living room, kitchen with stainless steel appliances, electric cooking/range, and microwave, skylights, and separate electric and rear, exterior stairwell entry. The walkout lower level is a place to work hard, play hard with a spacious rec room, gym with rubber floor, metal ceiling, and wood walls, secret “safe” room, and French doors to backyard. In addition to the oversized, attached 2-car garage, three large outbuildings offer tons of storage and potential: a brand new insulated, finished pole barn with electric heat, 13ft. garage doors to fit an RV, cell phone antenna, and a second garage door to the backyard; a 3-bay insulated, finished detached garage with electric heat and brand new doors and openers; and a 2-story pole building for lawn equipment with storage above.
