Property Description

Welcome to your private retreat! Nestled in the woods of Western North Carolina on 1.68 acres within the gated community of The Old Orchard, this stunning home perfectly blends modern farmhouse elegance with functional, everyday luxury. Guests are welcomed by a classic rocking chair front porch, beautifully finished with a tongue-and-groove pine ceiling and dual ceiling fans. Enter the home through a striking 3/4 glass front door, elegantly framed by sidelights and a transom window. Inside, wide-plank engineered hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas. The living room creates an airy yet intimate space for gathering, highlighted by vaulted ceilings with beams and a cozy stone fireplace. A dedicated office space features its own walk-in closet, providing endless flexibility to serve as an exercise room, small den, reading room, or guest bedroom. The heart of the home is a chef-inspired kitchen boasting quartzite countertops, a walk-in pantry with wood shelving, and a propane gas range complete with a pot filler and a custom vent hood. Everyday convenience is elevated by an island-mounted microwave, metal pull-out drawers in most lower cabinets, and under-cabinet lighting. A classic farmhouse sink with a lighted faucet sits beneath three large windows, offering picturesque views of the screened porch and backyard. Just steps away, a dedicated laundry room provides extra storage cabinets and a utility sink. The main-level primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring plush carpet, vaulted ceilings, a custom walk-in closet, and private access to the screened porch. The en-suite bath is designed for pure relaxation, offering a dual vanity, a freestanding soaking tub, a beautifully tiled shower with a large bench seat, and a private water closet. A second bedroom on the main level boasts 9-foot ceilings, charming faux beams, and its own walk-in closet. Upstairs, a large third bedroom serves as a perfect private retreat, complete with a private bath and walk-in closet. This flexible room could easily serve as a large playroom, theater room, and more. Additionally, with minimal modification, there is space for potential expansion beyond the back wall. Entertain or unwind on the expansive screened porch, featuring a vaulted wood ceiling and pre-installed perimeter lighting. Step outside to enjoy a fire pit area just off the porch, an emerging English garden in the back, and a side-yard sitting area. The sellers thoughtfully utilized the corners of this sitting area for vegetables and herbs, though it is just as easily suited for ornamental flowers. Practicality meets peace of mind with an installed whole-home generator, plus an additional connection for a portable generator located in the garage. Easy living continues in The Old Orchard with access to the community's clubhouse, complete with an outdoor pool, recreation area, and picnic area. The property is ideally located just a short drive from down
