This beautiful, updated home located in Sapphire Valley sits on a quiet .76 acre lot and has been meticulously furnished (everything conveys except a few personal items). Featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home backs up to a wooded, undeveloped HOA green space and has a peaceful year-round flowing small creek across the entire property that is located next to the two private decks. The dining room has a new dining table and chairs, along with large screened windows - perfect for letting in the cool mountain air and relaxing sounds of the creek. Inside, you will find an open-concept layout with new neutral paint colors, wide beam pine hardwood flooring, tongue and groove pine ceilings, custom artwork and drapes, granite countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, and a crackling wood fireplace with gas ignition. Accessible from one of the decks is a natural stone patio with adirondack chairs surrounding a fire pit adjacent to the creek. The exterior is HardiePlank with a custom paint job, a new A/C unit, and a semi-finished basement for storage that is accessed off the front deck and can be turned into a workshop or bonus room. At approximately 3500 feet in elevation, this is the perfect summer retreat to enjoy all that Western NC has to offer including abundant hiking, waterfalls, and rivers for fly fishing. Ownership comes with Sapphire Valley Master amenities, including indoor/outdoor pools, golf, tennis, pickleball, two private lakes (Hogback Lake is ~ half mile drive away to private dock/boat storage), fitness center, ski slope, tubing and much more. There are many great restaurants and shopping in the Village of Cashiers (just a few miles up the road) and Highlands (which is approximately a 35 min drive). The adjacent ~ .45 acre lot to the right was bought by the owners as well in 2021 for additional privacy. They would like for this lot to be included for a nominal price - it could potentially be used for a guest house, detached garage, gazebo, or just to maintain the existing privacy. An incredible opportunity for full-time living, a relaxing vacation retreat, or a potential income-producing short-term rental. Schedule your showing today!
