Architectural Narrative
Escape to the serenity of 294 Verbena Lane, a storybook mountain cabin nestled in the gated community of Creston, just a short drive from the charming downtown of Black Mountain, NC. This meticulously maintained home offers a perfect blend of rustic elegance and modern comfort, providing over 2000 square feet of beautifully designed living space across three levels. The main level features a warm and inviting atmosphere with an open living area and vaulted ceilings, perfect for gathering by the fire or entertaining guests. The primary bedroom and a full bath are also on the main level. The upper loft functions as a second bedroom. The walkout basement has plenty of storage, a full bathroom, and a generous bonus room that is currently used as a game room. It could also be used as a hobby space, media room, bunkroom, or could be reconfigured to accommodate another private bedroom. This log home really shines when it comes to outdoor living space. The deck has recently been redone with Trex decking, and there is a screened porch off the living room. The main deck wraps around on three sides, and there is even a grilling deck off the kitchen. You can also enjoy the stone patio with outdoor fireplace! As a community, Creston is known for its commitment to preserving the natural landscape, offering residents access to hiking trails and an incredible community center with a dog park and fitness center. Creston is surrounded by Foothills Land Conservancy and Pisgah National Forest, making this gated community one of the most beautiful and natural neighborhoods in Western North Carolina. Enjoy a quiet lifestyle while remaining close to the vibrant arts, dining, and shopping of Black Mountain and nearby Asheville. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence or a seasonal getaway, this cabin at 294 Verbena Lane is a mountain oasis waiting for you. This lot is designated a "CC" lot (Cabins at Creston), meaning short-term rentals are allowed with a 3-night minimum stay. Roof has been recently inspected and is in good shape.
