Description

Nestled atop a gentle knoll on nearly 3.5 acres of unrestricted, secluded land, this fully remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath manufactured home with a bonus room and full unfinished basement is a rare gem! Surrounded by mature trees and peaceful privacy, this property offers the perfect blend of modern updates and serene country living. A gravel driveway leads to a spacious parking pad and attached carport at the back of the home, providing easy access and convenience. Step around to the front porch and take in the expansive view of the yard and surrounding woods—ideal for relaxing with your morning coffee or unwinding in the evening. Inside, the home features a bright, open layout with luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. The Living Room showcases vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, adding rustic character and a sense of spaciousness. The kitchen has been completely updated with stylish cabinets, butcher block countertops, open shelving, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy eat-in breakfast area. The split-bedroom layout ensures privacy, with the Master Suite offering a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and spa-like en suite bath featuring double vanities and a beautifully tiled step-in shower. On the opposite end, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a bonus room, a full guest bathroom, and a laundry room with direct outdoor access to the carport. Outside, the property has two outbuildings—one large structure with power, roll-up doors, and an attached carport offering endless potential for a workshop, storage, or hobby space. The second smaller building includes a lean-to for extra covered storage. This move-in ready home combines modern living with room to roam—don't miss your chance to own this unique property!

    "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."
