Property Description
Beautifully maintained and full of mountain charm, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage enjoys long-range mountain views overlooking the Mountain Glen Golf Course. Thoughtful updates, established landscaping, easy paved access, and a convenient location make this an inviting option for either a full-time residence or mountain getaway. The main level centers around a spacious open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area designed for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, tiled backsplash, generous cabinetry, and plenty of workspace. Just beyond, the living area is anchored by a handsome stone gas-log fireplace, while large windows bring in natural light and showcase the surrounding mountain setting. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. The finished lower level is currently utilized as a private third-bedroom suite, offering a second brick gas fireplace, en-suite full bath, walk-in closet, and mini-split for added comfort. Step outside to the large back deck to take in the long-range views and scenery across the golf course. Mature landscaping surrounds the home, complemented by a nicely usable, flat front yard. An easy paved driveway provides plenty of parking and leads to a one-car garage with ample storage, while an additional outbuilding offers even more space for tools and outdoor gear. Central forced heat and air serve the home, with additional heating options including propane monitor and gas logs. Lower lot also conveys, so you have view control! Conveniently located near downtown Newland for shopping, dining, and everyday necessities, with downtown Banner Elk approximately 20 minutes away, this sweet Mountain Glen cottage offers a wonderful blend of character, comfort, scenery, and accessibility.
