The landscaping here truly sets the property apart, with substantial stone patios and paver areas, beautiful rock features, mature trees, and thoughtfully designed flower beds that create an incredibly peaceful setting. Birds fill the background throughout the day, giving the property an almost magical feel. The outdoor spaces were designed to be enjoyed without feeling overly high maintenance, with a functional layout that includes a fenced front yard, easy access to the flat backyard, and seamless flow to the back deck and outdoor living areas. The spacious covered front porch was made for slow mornings, long conversations, and watching the layers of blue mountains shift with the light throughout the day. You can easily picture morning coffee on the porch followed by afternoons enjoying sunshine in the backyard. Quiet, serene, and surrounded by nature, the setting feels worlds away while still being just 15 minutes to Beech Mountain Ski Resort.
