Location is everything, and it doesn't get much better than this! Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street near Stadium Drive and Appalachian State University's Kidd Brewer Stadium, this home offers a rare blend of privacy, space, and in-town convenience. With 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, the home offers a flexible floor plan with plenty of space to fit a variety of needs. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home features an open living and dining area adjacent to the updated kitchen, along with a spacious lower-level den and bonus room that provide additional gathering space. Large semi-wrap around deck provide plenty of room to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the peaceful setting. Single-level living is possible with the primary living areas, bedrooms, and attached one-car garage all conveniently located on the main floor. Numerous updates have been completed over the years, including kitchen renovations and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout much of the home. The home is heated with radiant baseboard heat, offering clean, efficient, and comfortable warmth throughout the seasons. The property also includes solar panels, which are not currently in use. An added benefit of this in-town location is access to city water, city sewer, and town-maintained paved roads, offering the convenience and reliability many buyers seek. A rare opportunity to enjoy privacy and space in one of Boone's most sought-after in-town locations.
