Wake up to stunning Grandfather Mountain views from the expansive multi-level Trex deck, thoughtfully designed for year-round enjoyment. Featuring a partially covered seating area, propane patio heater, and fire table, the outdoor living space is ready for everything from crisp mountain mornings to cozy evenings under the stars-rain, snow, or shine. Blending timeless cabin charm with stylish modern updates, this inviting mountain retreat is ideal as a full-time residence, peaceful getaway, or four-season rental investment. Inside, the kitchen and bathroom were completely renovated down to the studs (permits on file with Watauga County). Upgrades completed within the past three years include custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, accent tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and elegant marble and ceramic tile flooring, creating a fresh and sophisticated interior throughout. Designed with comfort and low-maintenance living in mind, the home also features a dual-head mini-split system for efficient year-round climate control, a tankless electric water heater installed in April 2026, updated plumbing and gutters, and an encapsulated crawl space for added peace of mind. Generous living and flex spaces provide room to gather, work remotely, or simply unwind in the quiet beauty of the mountains. Whether enjoying sunrise coffee on the deck or evenings around the coffee table with friends, this cabin captures the very best of mountain living.
