Property Description

A private forest retreat awaits you just minutes from Mars Hill and Weaverville. Follow the scenic Ivy River to this modern Arts & Crafts home, nestled on 3.77 wooded acres with a circular driveway leading directly to the front door. Inside, the spacious, open main-level floor plan centers on a wood-burning stove and opens onto a large deck with a built-in fireplace—an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining while surrounded by nature. A screened side porch offers the perfect place to enjoy an afternoon rain while listening to the chorus of songbirds. The home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with numerous recent improvements, including a brand-new HVAC system and Furnace, new deck boards, rebuilt primary shower, hydro seeded lawn, and more. The primary suite opens onto a private deck that places you at tree canopy level, creating an immersive forest experience. The clean, unfinished basement opens to the backyard through French doors, offering excellent potential for additional living space, a studio, or workshop. A peaceful mountain setting with room to make it your own, all within easy reach of town.
