Welcome to your dream home in Bryson City! This charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience, all on one level. Nestled at the end of a well-maintained road, you'll enjoy privacy and stunning mountain views, yet you're only 5 minutes from downtown. Step inside to discover a spacious living room featuring vaulted ceilings that create an airy atmosphere. The kitchen is a delight, equipped with stainless steel appliances and adorned with live edge granite counters, perfect for the cook in the family! Both bedrooms come with convenient walk-in closets, providing ample storage space. The expansive covered front porch runs the length of the house, ideal for relaxing and soaking in the mountain views. The property includes 2.758 acres of usable land, complete with beautiful landscaping and a great yard for outdoor activities. A standout feature is the 12x20 building that will be delivered soon. This was intended to be an art studio, which includes a mini-split heating and air system for year-round comfort. This will make a great flex space for either storage or to continue with the current owner's plan. With easy year-round access, you'll find mostly paved roads with just a short gravel stretch—no need for a 4x4! Beneath the porch, there's a 44x9 dry storage area with a concrete floor, perfect for storing tools and toys, or even for creating a small workshop space. You can't beat the convenient location to all that the Smokies has to offer! Photos of the new building are coming soon.
