Architectural Narrative
Nestled on over two acres of private, pristine mountain land, this pre-inspected retreat offers the ideal blend of tranquility, modern updates, and unmatched flexibility. Located just one mile from the historic Balsam Mountain Inn and a quick 10-minute drive to the West Waynesville Walmart shopping area, you get the peaceful feel of a secluded getaway without sacrificing everyday convenience. Best of all, this unrestricted property fully allows short- or long-term rentals, making it a dream investment or personal sanctuary. Inside, the main level exudes rustic warmth, highlighted by brand-new carpet, beautifully updated bathrooms, and a cozy gas-log stone fireplace that anchors the inviting main living area. An additional living room space and a spacious screened-in porch provide plenty of room to stretch out, entertain, or simply relax while soaking in the breathtaking, year-round mountain views. Adding even more value, the finished basement features a full additional apartment complete with both interior and exterior access—perfect for a private guest suite, extended family, or a lucrative rental stream. Fully fenced yard.
