3107 McKenzie Way N Old Fort, NC 28762

Views, views and more views! Actually 300-degrees of mountain views on almost 9 acres. Additional building sites to share with family and friends, sell or treasure for yourself. A charming, cozy Arts-and-Crafts cottage featuring a warm great room, stone fireplace and wood floors. Everything a mountain house should be. The open kitchen includes a bar-height countertop and tile flooring, and ample windows fill the living area with natural light. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bath, and the hall bath features a tubular skylight for added brightness. The lower level offers a comfortable den-perfect for reading, gaming, movie nights, or slipping away to finally enjoy that book you've been saving. Step outside onto the wrap-around deck for rest, relaxation, unforgettable stargazing, and memorable gatherings. Additional features include abundant storage, an encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, and a Generac generator for peace of mind during the occasional Western NC storm. Situated on almost 9 acres, the property provides privacy, additional potential building sites, and 100% control of your views. A large level yard offers room to garden or play, and the paved-road access makes coming and going easy. Are you concerned about multiple annual dues because you would have 8 lots? No worries. Since the lots are contiguous (per POA), there is only one set of annual dues which is $1407 annually. Located within the gated community of Gateway Mountain, you're just a short distance from Lake George-ideal for swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking-and from the mile-plus hiking trail to Waterfall Park for more outdoor adventure. Also worth noting, this home is located within the established, gated community of Gateway Mountain. The community is approximately 7 miles from Interstate 40 at Exit 73 in Old Fort, offering convenient access while still feeling private and peaceful. Old Fort is a historic railroad town entering an exciting new chapter-now known for some of Western North Carolina's best mountain biking and hiking. The growing outdoor recreation scene has helped bring in fantastic local businesses such as Hillman Beer, The Modern Alchemist, Old Fort Bike Shop, Go-Go's and more. (if you do not know what Go-Go's is, I encourage you to find out). The area is also home to a vibrant mountain arts community, where you'll find galleries and studios featuring some of the most beautiful and uniquely crafted pieces you'll see anywhere. Please note: The septic permit is for a 2-bedroom home, but the main floor includes a versatile bonus room perfect for guests, an office, library, art studio, and more.
