About 581 New Homestead Drive
I am excited to share a new listing on the market for the first time. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom private home is located just minutes from everything the High Country has to offer. The main level features an open floor plan with vaulted tongue-n-groove ceilings, hardwood floors, and a wall of windows providing mountain views and natural light. Highlights include a floor-to-ceiling rock wall with a wood-burning stove and custom wood features throughout. The kitchen is ideal for large gatherings, offering ample counter space and cabinets galore, a breakfast area, and direct access to the screened in porch and spacious deck and garage. You will also find a large pantry and laundry closet in the kitchen. The primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main level with a spacious en-suite and walk-in-closet, alongside a guest bedroom, full bathroom, and a multi functioning room. The lower level contains an additional bedroom and bathroom, plus a large bonus space with a propane fireplace and lower deck access. Additional feature is a large workshop (9.10' X 20') off of the garage. This space will make a great art studio or workout room or whatever you desire. Located just 10 minutes from Valle Crucis Community Park and the new elementary school and only 15 minutes from Boone and ASU, this property combines peaceful mountain privacy with convenient access to Blowing Rock and Banner Elk. This move-in-ready home is perfect as a mountain getaway or a full-time residence.
