Property Description

This spacious and beautifully appointed mountain retreat truly has it all! Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings and an inviting open-concept floor plan designed for gathering family and friends. The stunning kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample space for entertaining. The main level offers a spacious family room with a beautiful fireplace, two primary suites with baths, and an additional bedroom. Upstairs, guests will enjoy a loft gaming area perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. The lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a second full kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, three additional bedrooms, and a recreation area complete with a newly covered pool table. With accommodations for up to 14 guests, this property is ideal as a vacation home, rental investment, or full-time mountain getaway. One of the property's most desirable features is its location—walkable to downtown Banner Elk via the Greenway, giving you easy access to restaurants, breweries, shopping, parks, and popular summer concerts. Enjoy the convenience of leaving the car behind while still being tucked away in a beautiful mountain setting. For winter fun, you're less than five miles from Sugar Mountain Resort, offering skiing, snowboarding, tubing, and year-round mountain adventures.
