Property Description
Beyond its extraordinary setting along the river and its rare position surrounded by Chimney Rock State Park, 306 Southside Drive stands out as one of the most iconic and recognizable homes in the entire Chimney Rock area. Step inside to a renovated kitchen offering updated cabinetry, improved functionality, and a bright, welcoming atmosphere perfect for cooking, gathering, or hosting guests after a day exploring the park. Its character, history, and dramatic natural backdrop make it instantly memorable - but the home itself has been thoughtfully updated to offer modern comfort without losing its mountain charm. The riverfront setting is the true centerpiece. Whether you're relaxing on the deck, dipping your feet in the water, or simply taking in the sound of the river echoing off the rock walls, the experience is immersive and unforgettable. A home surrounded by State Park land and set directly on the river is exceptionally rare. 306 Southside Drive offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a private slice of Chimney Rock's most breathtaking scenery.
