About This Property
Imagine beginning each morning with breathtaking views of Crowders Mountain and ending the day beneath a pergola as the sun sets behind the peaks. This extraordinary, move-in-ready brick ranch is more than a home—it is a private retreat filled with character, unexpected amenities, and spaces designed for living, relaxing, and entertaining. Perfectly positioned on a spacious corner lot in the county, the property offers the beauty of peaceful surroundings along with the valuable benefit of no city taxes. Large windows capture the scenery and fill the interior with natural light, while a covered front porch with a stone floor and mature landscaping creates an unforgettable welcome. An approximately three-year-old roof and a private well with excellent water pressure add everyday peace of mind. Step inside to discover original hardwood floors, timeless details, and not one—but two wood-burning fireplaces. The inviting living room is centered around a wood stove and features charming built-in seating on either side of the fireplace, creating the perfect setting for cozy evenings and memorable gatherings. The spacious kitchen combines character and function with abundant cabinetry, a center island offering additional seating, an oversized pantry, newly installed flooring, and its own wood-burning fireplace—a truly rare feature that makes this space feel especially warm and distinctive. A convenient drop zone connects the kitchen and main living area to the attached one-car garage. All three generously sized bedrooms feature original hardwood floors. The primary bedroom includes a private bathroom with a recently upgraded Bath Fitter tub, offering comfort and convenience within your own personal retreat. The surprises continue in the added rear sunroom, where a private hot tub and electric fireplace create a resort-like escape that can be enjoyed throughout the year. Surrounded by windows and natural light, this special space is perfect for unwinding while taking in the changing seasons. Outside, the home truly comes alive. An expansive patio, beautiful pergola, fully fenced backyard, and incredible Crowders Mountain views create an unforgettable setting for outdoor dining, celebrations, gardening, or peaceful evenings under the stars. The generous corner lot provides room to entertain, play, and enjoy the outdoors in complete comfort. For those who need exceptional storage, workspace, or room to pursue their passions, the oversized detached two-car garage is an outstanding addition. Above it, a finished flex space with heating and cooling offers endless possibilities as a home office, fitness room, art studio, hobby space, music room, or private creative retreat. This area is conditioned by a window unit, does not include a bathroom, and is not represented as a bedroom. Together with the attached one-car garage, the property provides an impressive total of three garage spaces. Even better, the refrigerator, washer and dryer, sunroom hot tub, sunroom electric fireplace, living-room wood stove, and outdoor pergola all remain—allowing the next owner to begin enjoying these remarkable features immediately. From its dramatic mountain backdrop and resort-style sunroom to its three garage spaces, original hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, and exceptional outdoor living areas, this is not a cookie-cutter home. It is a one-of-a-kind property offering warmth, versatility, privacy, and an unforgettable lifestyle—all with no city taxes. Come experience the views, discover the unexpected spaces, and imagine the life you could create here. Schedule your private showing today—this is a home you must see to fully appreciate!
