Description

Mountain living feels effortless in this chalet-style retreat, where warm wood details, branch frontage, and flexible living space create the kind of home buyers hope to find but rarely do. Fresh exterior paint, a metal roof, paved road access, asphalt drive, attached carport, detached double garage with finished storage space, fiber optics, and a generator add everyday confidence, while cathedral wood ceilings, wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a spacious kitchen with island and double oven make the main level feel inviting and practical. The upstairs primary suite offers privacy with a walk-in closet and tiled shower, while the finished basement expands the possibilities with a family room, second kitchen, bar with mini fridge, bonus room, bath, and wood stove. Enjoy the deck, porch, patio, and firepit after a day exploring Murphy's River Walk, Piney Knob Trail, downtown shops, and nearby mountain recreation.

We estimate this home will sell faster than 84% nearby.

"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."
