About this home

This is the one buyers keep asking for…updated, flexible, and right where you want to be. Just 5 minutes to New Market Center and under 10 to Appalachian State University and Downtown Boone, this fully updated home delivers the rare combo of peaceful woods and everyday convenience. Set on a beautifully landscaped lot with a firepit area, the setting strikes that perfect High Country balance…quiet when you want it, close to everything when you need it. Inside, the home has been completely refreshed with an open, easy-flow layout. The kitchen is a standout with stone countertops, new appliances, and a seamless connection to the living space...great for hosting or everyday living. With 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the layout is both functional and comfortable. And the best part? The heavy lifting is done. New windows. New flooring. New Plumbing. New Electric. Enclosed crawl space. New heat pump. Every detail has been handled so you don’t have to. No restrictions means flexibility. Use it how you want. It’s been a primary home, and as of March, a short-term rental with strong 5-star reviews already in place. Struggling to find a great rental for your App State student? Looking for a low-maintenance investment? Or just want a move-in ready mountain home that checks all the boxes? This one does it all.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
