Views, views and more views! Actually 300-degrees of mountain views on almost 9 acres. Additional building sites to share with family and friends, sell or treasure for yourself. A charming, cozy Arts-and-Crafts cottage featuring a warm great room, stone fireplace and wood floors. Everything a mountain house should be. The open kitchen includes a bar-height countertop and tile flooring, and ample windows fill the living area with natural light. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bath, and the hall bath features a tubular skylight for added brightness. The lower level offers a comfortable den perfect for reading, gaming, movie nights, or slipping away to finally enjoy that book you ve been saving. Step outside onto the wrap-around deck for rest, relaxation, unforgettable stargazing, and memorable gatherings. Additional features include abundant storage, an encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, and a Generac generator for peace of mind during the occasional Western NC storm. Situated on almost 9 acres, the property provides privacy, additional potential building sites, and 100% control of your views. A large level yard offers room to garden or play, and the paved-road access makes coming and going easy. Are you concerned about multiple annual dues because you would have 8 lots? No worries. Since the lots are contiguous (per POA), there is only one set of annual dues which is $1407 annually. Located within the gated community of Gateway Mountain, you re just a short distance from Lake George ideal for swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking and from the mile-plus hiking trail to Waterfall Park for more outdoor adventure. Also worth noting, this home is located within the established, gated community of Gateway Mountain. The community is approximately 7 miles from Interstate 40 at Exit 73 in Old Fort, offering convenient access while still feeling private and peaceful. Old Fort is a historic railroad town entering an exciting new chapter now known for some of Western North Carolina s best mountain biking and hiking. The growing outdoor recreation scene has helped bring in fantastic local businesses such as Hillman Beer, The Modern Alchemist, Old Fort Bike Shop, Go-Go's and more. (if you do not know what Go-Go's is, I encourage you to find out). The area is also home to a vibrant mountain arts community, where you ll find galleries and studios featuring some of the most beautiful and uniquely crafted pieces you ll see anywhere. Please note: The septic permit is for a 2-bedroom home, but the main floor includes a versatile bonus room perfect for guests, an office, library, art studio, and more.
