Experience the magic of mountain living in this cabin, perfectly positioned in a lovely river community, that is conveniently located to downtown Murphy, the Harah's Valley River Casino, Erlanger Medical Center, Tri-County Community College and the John C. Campbell Folk School! Sold AS IS, this home is move-in ready. Ideal as a lucrative STR investment or a private sanctuary nestled within a well-managed HOA community featuring paved roads and scenic walking trails. Built in 1991, this home provides single-level living with all conveniences on one level. Step inside to discover an inviting open floor plan, wood-burning fireplace and an updated kitchen boasting of granite countertops, beautifully refinished distressed cabinetry, and an airy eat-in dining area. Sunlight streams through large windows and sliding glass doors, illuminating the living spaces and bringing the outdoors in, while custom stone sinks provide an artisan touch to both bathrooms. A newly installed HVAC system contributes to the value of the home alongside the metal roof, and a freshly refinished exterior, including expansive decks painted in July 2024. The property is thoughtfully complemented by an attached carport that will accommodate vehicles, trailers, motorcycles and gear, plus a delightful she-shed added in 2022, perfect for creative pursuits or serene solitude. The walk-in crawl space offers a versatile “man cave” for added extra storage or just hanging out with the crew (a must see). Just off the deck, a stone foundation awaits the restoration of a cascading waterfall to add a private water feature on the landscaped lot for the avid horticulture and gardening enthusiasts to complete. Great starter home, investment property or second home get-a-way!
