Description

Beautiful views of the Peaks of Otter and Blue Ridge Mountains from this completely renovated 3 bedroom home. Plumbing, Hvac, Electrical, hot water heater, insulation, appliances and more have been replaced within the last 2 years. Sit on the front porch in your rocking chair or move onto the covered porch perfect for an outdoor dining area or hanging out in the evening. Step into the kitchen with LVT flooring, butcher block countertops, tile backsplash and new appliances to boot. The dining area is connected and looks out to the views of the mountains. Turn to the large living room with hardwood floors. Head down the hall to the large remodeled bath and then the three bedrooms. Go back and head down to the clean unfinished basement ready for your workshop, man cave or play area for the kids. The yard is fairly level and ready for the kids to play. Your future plan could be to connect a deck off the back for entertaining and enjoying the serenity of the mountains. Come see this one!
