Own your own cove! Yes, the property boundaries follow the ridges running above the home to the left and right and behind it, and all below the home till the driveway disappears into the woods. You will own virtually everything your eyes see, except the daily stunning sunrises over Three Top and Peak Mountains in the distance. A creek runs down through the middle of the cove, offering a potential pond source. That’s 23.5 acres to retreat to from the busyness of the world. The charming home was custom built in 1987, with high quality materials that have well stood the test of time. You’ll be surprised as you walk through the home with unexpected delights – stained glass windows, a chimney whimsically laid out under the direction of local artist Lowell Hayes, plus many energy efficient features including a basement greenhouse kept warm by a bank of south-facing windows and water drums that retain the day’s warmth, roof solar panels as a source of hot water for the home. The home’s cheery, light-and-bright spaces with east and south-facing windows stream in light and absorb the day’s warmth. The sunroom opens to the living room, creating more warmth and abundance of light. Throughout the home the surrounding southern hardwood forest slips into the home through all windows. The long range view of Three Top and Peak Mountains strikes you from the living room, kitchen, primary bedroom, ensuite bathroom, and lower bedroom. A viewing platform outside the lower bedroom is designed for relishing Three Top and Peak Mountain sunrises, coffee in hand and dear friend to share it with. Over the winter, the owners enlarged the primary bedroom and created an ensuite bath opening directly to it. Upstairs is another bedroom and bath. The main level offers the spacious and comfortable living room with sunroom off it, the open kitchen and dining room, a laundry room, a full bath, and a flex room, currently used as an office but could be a bedroom. Over the years the owners have wrapped the home in bright abundant color through extensive well established native and domesticated flowering plants and fruit trees. Bird and butterfly lovers will enjoy the bountiful visitors to the plants while strolling through or lounging in an extensive outdoor patio area. The large barn offers the possibility of garage space, or storage for your equipment to enjoy capers in the nearby north branch of the New River. A short 30-minute drive from Boone brings you to the bucolic countryside the cove lies in. Purchase this property for your true getaway lifestyle. You’ll discover tranquility and beauty surrounds you.

Each bedroom suite offers its own distinct millwork with custom wainscoting in cherry, wormy maple, and sinker cypress, creating a warm, refined mountain aesthetic. The kitchen is appointed with granite countertops, hickory cabinetry, and a dual-fuel range, seamlessly blending functionality with timeless design.

There is a 303 sq. ft. difference between the tax record and professional measurements likely due to the stairwell at basement, a heated storage room in the basement and the upstairs multipurpose room.

Steeped in more than two centuries of mountain heritage, this historic 111-acre Ashe County farm is a living story of North Carolina’s High Country. Once part of the early agricultural backbone of the region, the farm has been lovingly preserved under a conservation easement that ensures its pastoral landscape and legacy will remain unspoiled for generations to come.
