for $369,900 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. This 1,552 square foot home was built in 1956 on a lot size of 5.3.
Showings begin March 25th. Located in the heart of Mountain City, this beautifully renovated one level home sits on 5.3 flat acres with a creek and mountain views stretching out behind it. With frontage set back off Highway 421, the property offers easy access to everything while still enjoying a scenic setting. The gravel road leading in, shared by only two other properties, offers a peaceful setting perfect for evening bike rides and outdoor enjoyment. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully redesigned while keeping its original character. Natural light pours in, highlighting views of the field and mountains just beyond the home. The kitchen has been completely refreshed with painted cabinetry in a soft, inviting green, accented by brushed gold hardware and updated finishes that feel both warm and current. New flooring flows through the kitchen, laundry, and bathrooms, while fresh paint throughout gives the entire home a clean, cohesive feel. Original hardwood floors were uncovered and brought back to life in the dining room and two bedrooms, adding warmth and authenticity you simply cannot recreate. The additional bedroom features brand new carpet along with its own mini split system for added comfort and flexibility. Both bathrooms have been intentionally designed to bring in personality and charm. The floral bathroom has been reimagined with coordinating wallpaper, updated lighting, a new mirror, and a refreshed vanity. The second bathroom features plaid wallpaper paired with board and batten molding, creating a cohesive look full of character. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof and a newer HVAC system and sump pump in the full basement. The layout lives larger than expected, offering an easy, functional flow that makes the home feel more spacious than its square footage suggests. Step outside and you will find a rare combination of usable land, natural beauty, and versatility. With creek frontage, mountain views, and level acreage, the possibilities here are wide open. The property also offers potential for commercial use, adding even more opportunity- Buyer to verify. Additional features include an attached one car garage, a storage shed, and a metal carport, offering plenty of space for parking, storage, or equipment. From the charming original front door to the thoughtful updates throughout, this home blends character, comfort, and setting in a way that is hard to find.
