Spectacular handcrafted log home, complete with a private in-law suite tucked seamlessly into the lower level. Nestled on 1.6 acres in Grandview Peaks, a gated mountain community located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains! The fully finished basement offers exceptional flexibility – perfect as a private in-law suite for multigenerational living, a comfortable space for extended family or guests, or an income-producing rental opportunity. It offers easy access & privacy with a separate dedicated driveway and entrance as well as a full kitchen, family room, en-suite bedroom and 2nd laundry room. The primary floor has all you need for main level living. The entryway opens to a spacious dining area, leading to the large kitchen w/ an eat-in island, gorgeous wood cabinets and a convenient walk-in pantry. The laundry room shares space with a half bathroom. The primary en-suite is open with high ceilings, a walk-in closet and a small loft tucked away for added storage space. Just steps away, the bedroom opens to the covered back porch where you can sip your morning coffee. Upstairs you’ll find an open loft that’s the perfect space for a home office/workout or hobby room. The second en-suite bedroom is also in the loft with it’s own open deck to enjoy the surrounding nature and mountain views. Outdoor living here is every bit as enticing as inside with covered wrap-around porches & a level backyard for gardening, a playground, or relaxing around the campfire. Leading to the front entrance is a huge attached carport, tall enough to store an RV or boat & a detached 2-car garage & separate storage shed. No dangerous steep roads here…this home is located close to the gated community entrance for easy access to Marion & Morganton and just 45 minutes to Asheville. Residents enjoy swimming & fishing at the private community lake & beach. There’s 5 miles of nature trails for hiking and weekly community gatherings at the lakeside pavilion. From the moment you arrive, this well cared for home invites you to live the dream – where rustic charm meets modern comfort. Schedule your tour today!
