IDEALLY LOCATED, MOUNTAIN CABIN is located in Banner Elk, less than 4 miles from downtown, nestled between Sugar Mountain Ski Resort (about 6 miles away) and Ski Beech (about 9 miles away). This beautifully crafted 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath mountain retreat, built in 2007, offers quality construction, impressive finishes, and a versatile layout ideal as a primary residence, second home, or investment property.
The main level showcases a STUNNING GREAT ROOM with STONE FIREPLACE, soaring character, and beautiful solid OAK FLOORING flowing through the great room, kitchen, dining areas, foyer, and powder room. The oversized kitchen features abundant workspace and bar seating, complemented by a convenient kitchen dining area and elegant formal dining room with a STRIKING COFFERED WOOD CEILING. The spacious primary suite offers a private sitting area, massive bath, and exceptional closet space, while custom hardwood stair rails add another layer of craftsmanship.
Upstairs, a generous loft provides the perfect space for reading, relaxing, or a home office. TWO OVERSIZED BEDROOMS each feature EN-SUITE BATHROOMS and extensive wall-to-wall closet space. The EXPANSIVE LOWER LEVEL offers incredible flexibility with room for multiple bunk beds, recreation, or additional guest space, plus a full bath. There is a generator to provide backup power and peace of mind during mountain weather.
Outdoor living is equally impressive with THREE LARGE DECKS—one on the front and two overlooking the back, connected by stairs and providing plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing in the mountain air.
From the THOUGHTFUL FLOOR PLAN and quality finishes to the abundant sleeping space. This property delivers the MOUNTAIN GETAWAY buyers are looking for. The home has been in a rental program. Words truly cannot do it justice—experience the 3D tour, explore the photos, and come see this remarkable home in person.
