About this home

Situated on over 3 private acres, this charming 1937 brick Craftsman-style home offers the perfect blend of timeless character and modern updates. The property features a beautiful expansive yard, level for easy mowing in both front and back, complemented by peaceful wooded acreage that provides exceptional privacy and a serene setting. Conveniently accessed from a state-maintained public road, the home welcomes you with a paved driveway and carport for easy everyday living. A spacious covered front porch showcases stunning original stonework—an ideal spot to relax and take in the surroundings. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully renovated with a fresh, updated kitchen and bathrooms featuring new appliances, countertops, ceiling fans, and stylish light fixtures. Original wood floors add warmth and character throughout, while a newer heat pump and propane furnace ensure year-round comfort. The layout offers a generous kitchen and dining area, three comfortable bedrooms, and two spacious bathrooms. Additional features include a sunroom, back patio for outdoor enjoyment, and a separate laundry and storage room for added convenience. Centrally located between Bakersville and Spruce Pine, this move-in ready home is affordably priced and offers a rare opportunity to enjoy classic craftsmanship with modern ease in a peaceful mountain setting. There is a shared spring with a spring box and pump. Shared with 58 Possum Trot and the small house on the corner. The spring once served 4 houses and is a very reliable water source. According to the family, it has been in use for over 100 years. The pump is attached to the electric service of 58 Possum Trot. A shared spring agreement will be drafted at closing to reflect all expenses for future repairs of the spring and pump will be equally shared and a monthly or yearly agreed upon amount for the electric use of the pump.

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.
