Wake up to breathtaking sunrises from this beautiful home in the highly desirable Huckleberry Knob neighborhood just 4 miles from Blowing Rock and 6 miles from Boone! Nestled on 2.7 acres, this is the perfect getaway spot, peaceful full-time residence, or ideally located vacation rental. From either of the large decks and the many windows along the living and dining area, you will enjoy beautiful views of Sampson Mountain and abundant wildlife, including foxes and wild turkeys.  Watch whitetail fawns and does frolicking in the Summer and big bucks roaming in the Fall in the 1-acre meadow right outside the window This home boasts a hard-to-find large yard, flat on one side of the home and gently sloping on the other.  Large hemlock hedges provide privacy along the front, and a 20-foot high wall of rhododendron borders the rear of the home. Mature woods round out this secluded setting, still convenient to restaurants, shopping, hiking, skiing, and all the High Country has to offer. With systems updated, this home has been meticulously cared for: a new heat pump in 2023, a new propane furnace in 2022, and a new water heater in 2023, vented gas log fireplace (that could be taken back to wood-burning), recently replaced well pressure tank, and gutter filters. There is also a not-often-found 2-car attached garage and a wide paved driveway with abundant parking, The additional unfinished 1,340 sq foot basement has roughed-in plumbing for a bathroom and could be finished into a second den, office, or multi-purpose room.
