Description

Look at this custom 4000+ sq ft home on 3+/- acres (not 15.37 acres per tax). Two homes in one. 3-bedroom 2 bath on the top floor (2000 sq ft) and the same floor plan on the bottom floor, each with its own special features. (Tax records show 3-bed-4 bath). Perfect for those who want a separate in-laws' quarters. Each with a garage, its own fireplace, laundry room, and A/C. Hardwood floors and tongue and groove ceiling, as well as its own wrap-around terrace. Each has its separate entrance. This was a well-cared-for and well-thought-out floor design. There is even a separate custom barn that was built with an additional carport. So many extras not mentioned here. Tankless water heater. Seeing is believing. Gated entrance, paved roads, and lush landscaping throughout the acreage. Views are priceless. Completely furnished is negotiable with a few exceptions. Looking for that buyer who is ready to act today. This is a move-in-ready home. No need to wait and endure all the hidden extra upgrade costs. Recent inspections were made and minor repairs completed.

    "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."
