About this home

NEWLY UPDATED! Your mountain escape—and income opportunity—awaits in beautiful Maggie Valley. With a proven track record as both a short- and long-term rental, this charming retreat is equally suited for investment or your own private getaway.

Tucked away on over half an acre with fencing and a peaceful, woodsy backdrop, this home invites you to slow down and settle in. Inside, you’ll find 2 bedrooms plus a spacious bonus room, giving you plenty of flexibility for guests, work, or play. Vaulted ceilings elevate the kitchen, where stainless steel appliances and ample dining space make gathering easy. The open living area centers around a stunning stone gas-log fireplace, bringing cozy, lodge-style vibes year-round. Fresh luxury plank flooring flows throughout, adding a clean, updated feel.

Step outside and take it all in—whether you’re sipping coffee on the covered porch, unwinding on the deck, or soaking in the quiet mountain setting. A new well adds peace of mind, while the surrounding nature delivers that true “getaway” feeling.

And when adventure calls, you’re in the perfect spot—just minutes to skiing, hiking, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and all the fun of Maggie Valley. Whether you're looking to relax, explore, or earn, this one checks all the boxes.

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.
