The large front deck, the country landscaping, the large back deck, is all on a large LEVEL 1.1 acre lot. The front and back of the home has beautiful mountain views. It is convenient to the Tri-Cities and to North Carolina. The setting is private. There is an old root cellar that could be rebuilt for your canned goods. The land is perfect for gardens. There is a custom built shed and lovely gardens all around. It is not on a permanent foundation. There is no air conditioning, but the wiring and ductwork is there if you want to install it. The mountain air cools the home. This home is for the person who appreciates the unique beauty of a creative artist. Buyer/Buyers Agent to verify all information.
