landscape. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath residence boasts over 3,400 square feet of heated living space, thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining or family gatherings. Main Level Living (Upper Floor) The thoughtfully laid-out upper level features an open-concept design with an open large kitchen, dining area, and a warm living room anchored by a wood-burning stove. Large windows and glass doors frame the back patio and surrounding mountain scenery. A cozy sitting room overlooks the front porch and its mountain views. The generous primary suite measures 15.5 × 17 feet and includes a large walk-in closet (9.10 × 6.11 feet) plus a luxurious ensuite bathroom (15.1 × 6.3 feet). The laundry room and hall storage are just off the kitchen and lead to the two additional bedrooms (11.6 × 13.4 feet and 10.8 × 13.4 feet) which share the second full bath (11.10 × 5.11 feet), making this floor perfect for family or guests. Lower-Level Versatility The lower level offers tremendous flexibility and functionality. A wide double-door entry on the side of the home easily accommodates UTVs, ATVs, or other equipment. It opens into a large heated finished space measuring 30 × 30.4 feet, complete with under-stairs storage -- ideal for a recreation room, workshop, home gym, or additional living area. Adjacent is a large unfinished 30 × 29-foot utility area housing the tankless hot water heater and air handling unit. This space is fully pre-wired for seamless switching from line power to generator power during outages. Outdoor Living at Its Finest Step outside to the fenced back porch and expansive patio area -- the ideal spot to savor spectacular sunrises, summer shade, and crisp fall mountain evenings around the inviting firepit. The covered front porch invites you to relax while soaking in stunning long-range vistas to the north and west over the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains. Outbuildings & Self-Sufficiency Just outside the home stands a practical pole barn with two covered awnings on either side, providing excellent storage for firewood or equipment. A gas-powered generator is housed in the storage building and can power the entire home (minus the heat pump). The existing wiring layout and large propane storage tank make upgrading to a full whole-home generator system straightforward and cost-effective. The Land - A Nature Lover's Paradise This 39+ acre property showcases diverse terrain: rolling ridgelines, gentle hollows, springs, creeks, and direct water frontage. Thoughtfully cleared using a forestry mulcher, the land now offers park-like open sightlines and views while preserving the natural beauty of mature hardwoods and fragrant mountain laurel. Over 1 mile of established UTV/ATV trails winds through the property, providing easy access to every corner. The landscape supports abundant wildlife -- including whitetail deer, wild turkey, black bear, and small game -- thanks to plentiful forage, cover, and water sources. Water features are a highlight: 500+ feet of frontage on the scenic Dan River, 1,500+ feet along Wildcat Branch (northern boundary), and three additional springs that create charming small waterfalls and peaceful pools. These cold, clean waters also support native brook trout, making the property a dream for anglers and wildlife enthusiasts alike.
