Lovingly maintained 2BR/2.5BA mountain home in the sought after, gated community of Walnut Mountain. Beginning in 2014, this home has received extensive upgrades, including a beautifully renovated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and solid surface vanity tops, along with gorgeous hardwood floors. Comfortable multi-use 12X18 loft area. Most furnishings stay, except for personal items and family heirlooms. The laundry room is conveniently located just off the master suite. A versatile room on the lower level-complete with a new half bath-currently serves as an art studio and could easily function as a third bedroom. The basement garage is being used as a woodworking shop and for additional storage. Comfort is insured by 2 HVAC systems and a whole home generator. Enjoy classic mountain living from the rocking chair front porch, or step out to the year round screened porch, enhanced with clear coverings for cooler months-perfect for peaceful evenings surrounded by nature. Residents of Walnut Mountain enjoy a full suite of amenities, including four fishing lakes, tennis and pickleball courts, a playground, clubhouse, fitness center, Olympic size pool, and scenic hiking trails. The community is known for its like minded neighbors and tranquil atmosphere. Ideally located near shopping, restaurants, orchards, wineries, Carter's Lake, state parks, and thousands of acres of public forest land, this home is perfect for anyone seeking solitude-whether as a full-time residence or a part-time retreat. Short term rentals are permitted.
