Description

Tucked in the quiet Paint Fork area just minutes from Mars Hill, this idyllic farmhouse on 1.7 acres is an excellent investment opportunity. Use as short or long term rental, mini farmstead, or as a full time residence. Don’t let the small sq footage fool you! Kitchen and bedroom have sloping ceilings under 7’ for an additional heated 363 sq ft. Metal roof, newer front porch made of durable composite material, and an updated kitchen combined with a hand-built rock fireplace, rustic wood floors, quietude, and mountain setting, makes for low maintenance living while conjuring warm nostalgia of simpler times. Kitchen/dining area features locally harvested and milled wood floors and trim. Across the street you’ll find fertile soil for a large garden, and plenty of space for small livestock. This is peaceful rural living at its finest. Confirm fiber optic available through French Broad EMC.

    "it's a boring area with a bunch of college students. Only parking is 2hr parking in mars hill unless its residential, parking permit, or working. College students will be anywhere you go in mars hill. "

    "Close to town but also have cows as neighbors. There are restaurants , post office, banks, library, shops, gas stations, grocery stores, greenways, a university,an elementary school, and much more close by."
  • Donnajanehugs
    "This is a gated mountain community with dramatic views, clean air, wooded areas, hiking trails, golf course, skiing, horseback riding stable, swimming pool, tennis courts, a country club restaurant (open six months of the year), lots of activities and friendly neighbors."
  • Cheryl L.
    "We lived here year round for 12 years, & would NOT be leaving if not for our aging parents & their need for our care. All 4 seasons are a blessing & it makes choosing a favorite season impossible. Western Sunsets will rival any in the world! Read this list of possibilities for anyone who is interested in a second home (for any season) or a wonderful all year getaway. This cabin provides the real cabin experience, not a fabricated version. It's cozy, well heated & in a GREAT, if not THE perfect location on the mountain. It makes coming and going easy & fast by mountain living standards. You have year round access to main roads which are kept cleared & well maintained. There is little mountain traffic on Oakridge & you have a shorter drive in & out of the community than most other residents. If you play Golf, you may never find a place you like to play better than Wolf Laurel Country Club. There is little maintenance to do in an antique cabin as you do not want to compromise the integrity of the beautiful logs which are everlasting! The appliances are relatively new & water pressure is great! There is little yard maintenance due to the abundance of natural fauna. The cabin is a 5 minute drive to the Ski Resort. Mars Hill provides great Grocery Shopping @ Ingles, CVS, & the quaint & great restaurants are there, only 20 minutes away. Weaverville has other shopping & dining & is a 30 minute drive from the cabin. You are also 10 minutes from the TN/NC border & a short drive to Johnson City TN. Walking anywhere @ Wolf Laurel is an adventure in Nature. We are some of the people written about who take food & beverages to the through-hikers to meet people from ALL OVER THE WORLD on the Appalachian Trail which is a 2 mile hike from the cabin. On a personal note: I will forever"
