Property Description
Experience mountain living at its best in this meticulously maintained Lindal Cedar home, offered fully furnished and nestled in the gated River Ridge community. Situated near the top of a gentle slope, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with additional loft offers seasonal mountain views, a peaceful setting, paved access and a lush front lawn with plenty of room for outdoor activities or gardening. Inside, the classic warmth of a mountain home is showcased by hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings and a dramatic wall of windows that fills the open living area with natural light and brings the outdoors in. A beautiful floor-to-ceiling stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the great room and creates the perfect gathering place on cool mountain evenings. The well-appointed kitchen features custom granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a large center island with seating, flowing seamlessly into the dining and living areas for easy entertaining. The spacious primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and features a beautifully renovated bath, large walk-in closet and French doors opening onto the rear deck. Laundry is also on the main level, while two additional bedrooms and a charming loft provide flexible space for family, guests or a home office. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with generous deck space and a spacious front porch perfect for morning coffee, entertaining or dining outdoors. A paved driveway provides ample parking in addition to the detached one-car garage. A new heat pump was installed in 2024 providing central heat and air conditioning. One of the home's best features is its location-just a short walk from the New River and minutes from some of the High Country's favorite outdoor recreation. High Country Expeditions and Mill Camp Winery are nearby, while downtown Boone, Appalachian State University, shopping and dining are less than 20 minutes away. Although never used as a vacation rental, the home's distinctive Lindal Cedar construction, 3-bedroom plus loft layout, ample parking, seasonal views and convenient location make it an appealing option for a full-time residence, second home or vacation rental. Turnkey, fully furnished and ready to enjoy from day one!
