Mountain views from every room, distinctive custom finishes, and downtown Black Mountain about a mile away via a sidewalk-lined route—this like-new corner-lot cottage brings mountain living beautifully into focus. Primarily enjoyed as a second home and meticulously maintained inside and out, this custom-built retreat offers inviting curb appeal and effortless one-level living. A built-in entry bench welcomes you into an airy living room where vaulted ceilings add volume and a scalloped feature wall frames an electric fireplace for cozy evenings. The open layout connects generous dining space with a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring custom maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, and an oversized island with seating for three. An exceptionally spacious walk-in pantry with a pocket door keeps essentials organized and conveniently within reach. Oak hardwood and tile flooring, modern fixtures, and thoughtfully selected hardware carry the refined finish throughout. Custom top-down/bottom-up window treatments balance privacy with mountain views and are included in the sale, along with the stainless steel range, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, washer, and dryer. The covered rear porch creates another inviting gathering space beneath a stained-wood vaulted ceiling with a ceiling fan—perfect for unhurried mornings and summer evenings. Strategically planted privacy trees, now in their third growing season, enhance the outdoor setting and will provide additional screening as they mature. The private primary suite features a double vanity, glass-enclosed tile shower, and spacious walk-in closet. Every closet features custom-built shelving for superb organization and efficient storage. Across the home, two guest bedrooms share an elegant full bath, with laundry conveniently nearby. A rear storage shed, attic, and sealed, conditioned crawlspace provide additional storage options. Extra insulation and high-efficiency HVAC complement the home’s high-performance construction. With downtown shops and dining close by and easy access to hiking, Montreat, Old Fort, and Asheville, this exceptional cottage offers a memorable mountain getaway and an appealing opportunity for investors exploring short-term rental use, subject to applicable requirements. A completely turnkey opportunity is available: all furniture, furnishings, and leisure bikes are offered for sale separately from the home, making it easy to settle in and start enjoying mountain life.
