Fabulous mountaintop opportunity to finish a renovation with much of the hard work already underway. Perched in a serene mountaintop setting, this property offers stunning northwest views from an expansive wraparound deck and convenient access to Interstate 26, shopping, dining, and all the outdoor recreation in the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. The home is being offered AS-IS and in its inspected stage of completion, providing an opportunity for a new owner to take over and finish with their own vision. Under existing design, the finished heated living area could be 1600-1700 sq ft. The main entry has been relocated to the lower level and features new 8-foot double mahogany doors with faceted glass. The lower level has been framed to include a kitchen, laundry, TV room, studio/flex r oom, and full bathroom. The kitchen area features a substantial stone hearth with a new La Nordica Rosa wood-cooking stove, along with a recently installed steel chimney flue. A gas tankless water heater and gas line for the kitchen are installed and inspected. The home also features a solid poured-concrete basement foundation with steel I-beams supporting the upper floor. Significant improvements include a new roof installed in 2023 with ice-and-water shield and gutter guards, the well is 800 ft with a pump system that has UV filtration and 1700 gallon tank- installed in 2023. Inspected rough-in work includes electrical, plumbing, and gas systems. The private mountain road has vehicle access restrictions; buyers should be accompanied by Agent and prepared to follow the property's access requirements. A unique opportunity to create a mountain retreat on nearly five acres while building upon substantial work already completed. Some MLS square footage and room information provided reflects the current designed and stage of completion and may differ from current tax information. Listing Agent is also the owner.
