Property Description
Tucked along the banks of the North River, Red Bud Ridge is the kind of property that feels quietly unforgettable. With nearly 600 feet of river frontage and the protected beauty of the 10,000-acre Short Mountain Wildlife Preserve bordering the property, this is a place where nature takes center stage. Eagles glide low along the river, the woods stretch endlessly beyond your view, and the setting feels worlds away from the pace of everyday life. Inside, the cabin blends warmth and comfort with thoughtful updates and custom touches throughout. Wood floors, custom built-ins, a freestanding island, new appliances, and walk-in shower create an inviting and functional living space. The stunning stone wood-burning fireplace serves as the heart of the home, complete with an ash collector system designed for easy maintenance and outside-air intake that helps the fire burn longer and more efficiently. The loft has comfortably served as a guest retreat with both a full bed and pull-out sofa, making the home ideal for hosting family and friends. Mini-split systems provide heating and cooling on both levels, a powerful 33,000 BTU. Step outside to enjoy a custom-built fire pit crafted from massive stones found right on the property - the perfect gathering place after a day spent on the river or exploring the surrounding mountains. The home is being sold furnished, with only a small list of exclusions provided by the seller, making this a truly turnkey escape. Practical features have been carefully considered as well, including a clean, well-ventilated crawl space housing the utilities and water system. A detached insulated garage/workshop offers three bays, including a smaller bay ideal for ATV storage, along with heating, air conditioning, and a durable metal roof. At the top of the property, a rustic hunting shack overlooks the land, adding even more character and recreational appeal to this mountain retreat. Short Mountain Development road maintenance fee is only $60 annually. Rarely does a river property offer this combination of privacy, recreation, bordering protected land, and move-in-ready comfort.
