129 Valley View Road

Secluded, classic Mayview home updated to state-of-the-art and just blocks from the heart of Blowing Rock and a stones throw to Bistro Roca. This charming professionally decorated home, perched on a ridge above New Year's Creek and the Glen Burney Trail, is a secret find with a fairly level driveway and entrance to the oversized double garage with a built-in BMW car charger. Follow the stone walk to the covered front porch, viewing the quaint mini-cottage beyond and enter the foyer. The vaulted great room with new wooden floors unfolds before you. Across, see the window wall with a covered porch and forest beyond. From floor-to-ceiling is the stone fireplace crafted with stone quarried from Grandfather Mountain with a new, large set of gas logs and special niches to display treasures. From this room, enter onto the covered back porch overlooking a rhododendron forest and backing up to the Glen Burney trail. Opposite is a large wall for displaying art that is punctuated by a custom wet bar. Overlooking all is a small loft for reading and relaxing with walk-in access to a large attic storage space. There is a newly installed kitchen with a granite dining bar and custom counters and cabinets. Upscale appliances include a double-door stainless steel refrigerator, gas range with two electric ovens, a deep composite sink to create a chef's kitchen - a favorite gathering spot. Adjoining the kitchen is a lovely half bath adjacent to a laundry room with custom cabinetry. All adjoin the oversized two-car garage with a wall of cabinets for extra storage and a workbench. Pull right into the garage and unload groceries straight into the kitchen. Just off the foyer is the primary bedroom with a dressing room/closet and luxury tile and granite shower with double vanities and heated tile flooring. Through the window, view the charming studio/office/garden house. From the foyer, guests go to the lower level with three bedrooms, a full bath and a family room with a window wall opening to the porch. One of the bedrooms is currently outfitted as a storage or wardrobe room and the den is currently set up as a studio apartment with a cozy gas stove to chase chills and a built-in wet bar with a wine fridge. Each room downstairs has its own separately controlled mini-split. Relax on the lower-level open porch or covered area with a swing. A bonus is the quaint heated & cooled separate building currently being used as a home office. This home has a full security system serviced through Creekside as well as a two camera ring system and a myQ remote system for the new garage door. This home is a must see to truly take in its charm, life-style, and wooded setting. We look forward to showing you this exceptional home!
