615 Leisure Acres Lane

Tucked into what feels like a storybook setting, this charming mountain cottage is the kind of place people come to the High Country hoping to find…and rarely do. Surrounded by rhododendrons, winding creeks, and a neighborhood that feels like its own little fairyland, it’s peaceful and still less than 10 minutes to downtown Boone and App State. Inside, the home strikes that hard-to-find balance of rustic charm and natural light. Think warm wood tones, a cozy wood-burning stove for chilly mountain nights, and bright, inviting spaces throughout. The main level features the primary bedroom, along with comfortable living areas, while upstairs offers additional bedrooms for guests. A second den gives you flexibility for movie nights, work-from-home, or extra hangout space. And then there are the details you won’t forget… a one-of-a-kind stairway with custom branch handrails and a tree stump feature that feels like it was pulled straight from the forest. Step outside and you’ll find multiple decks perfect for soaking in the mountain air, morning coffee, or winding down after a day in town. Short-term rentals are permitted here, making this not just a personal escape, but a smart investment opportunity as well. With 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, plenty of storage/flex space downstairs and a location that blends convenience with that true “away from it all” feeling…this is the kind of mountain getaway that just makes sense.
