Description

You will have to look hard to find a custom home in Cherokee County with this much character and charm. No corners were cut when this home was built in 2008. Over $260K invested in just the home’s construction! From the thick walnut hardwood flooring, to the soaring and trey ceilings with crown molding, to the beautiful stacked rock work, to the custom stained glass windows; this home is a SHOWSTOPPER. There are homes for less money, but so many of them lack character. This home is move-in ready with a huge screened in porch and rocker with your name on it. There is no light clutter and with 2.75 acres backing up to USFS land, you can hear the babbling stream along the property or listen to the katydids as you stare up at the stars.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "vehicle is a must have commodity to get around when you live out of the town city limits. Unless you like to walk or ride a bike. They're are few other drawbacks as well. Communicating by cell phone is not very good around the countryside, lacking cell towers. This is a problem, even trying to get on the internet. Somedays are better than others but still we have poor reception. Other than that we have the beautiful outdoors. We can enjoy going to the national forest for hiking, camping, hunting, fishing or just driving around the back roads and enjoy scenery as well as wildlife. Living outside the city's limit might have it's drawbacks but you take the good and the bad as it comes and make the best of it."

    "Murphy, NC is a small community with all the basics (yes, including Walmart). There is a lot to do or you can relax and enjoy the beauty of the mountains. Winters are NOT harsh, however, you will need warm clothing. You can enjoy the wildlife from your back deck or walk the many trails throughout the county. Although Murphy will have a Casino come the Summer of 2015; it will have little impact on the quality of life."
