About this home

Peaceful country living in a mountain setting, just minutes from everyday conveniences! Located only 4 miles from I-85 and approximately 3.5 miles from Crowders Mountain State Park. Crowders Mountain State Park features two scenic mountain peaks with breathtaking views of the surrounding Piedmont, making it easy to enjoy hiking, nature, and the outdoors close to home.

Inside, this well-maintained single-family home offers 1,759 square feet of living space on a 0.37-acre lot and features three bedrooms and two full baths. The spacious eat-in kitchen seamlessly connects to the dining room and features newer stainless-steel appliances, including a gas range, convection oven, French-door refrigerator, ENERGY STAR® dishwasher, and built-in microwave—all purchased within the last few years. The large living room has vaulted ceilings, a working wood-burning fireplace, and a distinctive feature wall that adds warmth and character. The spacious primary suite includes an ensuite bathroom and two closets, including a walk-in closet, while the private primary bath features a tiled shower. The generously sized guest bath also features a tiled shower and linen closet, while a dedicated laundry room provides convenient additional storage.

Step outside to enjoy the covered rocking-chair front porch with a ceiling fan, or head to the covered back deck overlooking the expansive, fully fenced backyard, complete with a firepit and plenty of space to relax or entertain. A spacious outbuilding with electricity, added in 2021 and previously used as a workshop, provides additional flexible space for hobbies, projects, or storage.

Numerous updates provide added peace of mind, including a new roof and gutters (2025), freshly painted front door and interior (2026), a new vapor barrier (2026), septic pumped (2026), a crushed gravel driveway (2025), all-new flooring (2024), a chimney cap and flue (2022), outbuilding (2021), and heating & cooling system (2020).

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. Christy can introduce you to lenders she trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
