As you follow the paved driveway in, you’re welcomed by rolling land, blooming rhododendrons, and the peaceful feeling of being tucked away in the mountains while still having access to Sparta and the New River. Step onto the porch and take in the seasonal mountain views, or relax in the hot tub after a day spent hiking, fishing, or exploring the Parkway. Inside, the home blends mountain charm with modern updates, featuring hardwood floors, cozy alcove window seats, and new quartz countertops throughout the kitchen, bathrooms, and wet bar. The layout includes two primary suites on the main level, offering flexibility for everyday living or hosting guests. Mini-split systems provide efficient heating and cooling year-round, and fiber optic internet is available for reliable high-speed connection. The insulated outbuilding with power adds extra space for storage, a workshop, or hobbies. With its usable rolling acreage, thoughtful updates, outdoor living spaces, and access to some of the High Country’s best outdoor recreation, this property offers the mountain lifestyle so many buyers are looking for.
