About this home

Positioned at the entrance to Grouse Moor on Sugar Mountain, this furnished condominium offers a compelling blend of mountain character, modern updates, and year-round appeal—ideal as a primary residence, second home, or short-term rental investment. With 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and approximately 1,040 square feet, the layout is both efficient and inviting. The main living area features tongue-and-groove ceilings, wood accents, and a stone electric fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and texture. The updated kitchen includes stainless steel appliances (2021) and flows easily into the living and dining areas, creating a comfortable setting for entertaining or relaxed evenings in. Dual decks on both levels extend the living space outdoors and provide a natural connection to the mountain setting—perfect for morning coffee, seasonal views, or unwinding after a day on the slopes. A Sugar Mountain shuttle stop is located directly at the driveway, offering convenient access to skiing and snowboarding without the need to drive—an attractive amenity for both owners and guests. Additional highlights include central heat and air conditioning, main-level laundry, ample storage, and a functional floor plan designed for ease of use in all seasons. Short-term rentals are permitted, and the property is currently operating as a vacation rental, making it well-suited for those seeking income potential alongside personal use. Offered fully furnished and move-in ready, this condominium allows for a seamless transition into ownership. Located minutes from Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, Banner Elk, and the outdoor offerings of the High Country, owners and guests can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, tubing, hiking, golf, mountain biking, summer festivals, and scenic lift rides throughout the year. Due to active rental use during the ski season, all showings require advance notice and approval. Every effort will be made to accommodate scheduling requests.

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.
