The...Now is the time to get that mountain home you have always dreamed of! This wonderful 2 bedroom, 2 bath home is located in the gated community of Leatherwood Mountains and is now available for purchase. "Crossroads" as it is lovingly known, has the charm of a mountain getaway and also the functionality of a full-time residence. Though this home has not been on the well-established rental program at Leatherwood for the last 5 years, it could be ready to produce supplemental income immediately. The home is being offered fully furnished and could be a turn-key opportunity for a short-term rental. Multiple decks, covered, open, and screened, give many options for enjoying the outdoors surrounded by trees and nature. The current owner fenced in the back yard providing a great place for pets to get out and stretch their legs. The fireplace is the centerpiece of the large open living area, stretching all the way to the ceiling. The fireplace is currently set up for propane logs but could be transformed back to wood-burning with minimal effort. Both of the bedrooms have large walk-in closets and spacious bathrooms. Both of the bathrooms are equipped with a garden tub as well as a separate shower. Double sinks give everyone plenty of space in the bathrooms without being on top of each other. The loft area of this house overlooks the spacious living area and could be used for an office space, game room, or simply a second sitting area. There is plenty of space for a pull-out couch or even a bed in this loft. The oversized windows throughout the house provide plenty of light and help bring the outside in! The open deck is built and wired for the addition of a hot tub... original owner did have a hot tub here in the past. The wooden cabinetry, floors, and accents inside this home have to be seen to be appreciated. If you love a mountain feel, perched in the woods, with hiking trails right out of your back door, then this may be the home for you. In addition to the almost 50 miles of horseback and hiking trails, Leatherwood Mountains has many amenities to offer. Property owners can enjoy the community pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a community pavilion, two fishing ponds, a children's playground, and more! The retail businesses located at the entrance to the community include a campground, state-supported trout waters, a seasonal restaurant, extensive equestrian facilities, a guided horseback riding program, and a newly opened Canopy Zipline course. Come and see this Leatherwood home, where "the stars are our streetlights".. This is a thriving community with a lot to offer! In addition to the stated amenities the businesses at the entrance give all kinds of social opportunities including live music, small festivals, equestrian events, and plenty for the kids. Be it a vacation home or for a lifetime, Leatherwood Mountains has so much to offer it simply can't all be stated here. This is a fantastic home being offered at a very good price.... Schedule a time to come and see it now, as it may be gone tomorrow!
