About This Property

At the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this well-kept brick ranch sits on a level 0.70 acre with paved frontage on US 221 in the Woodlawn community. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and 1,800 square feet all on one level, with hardwood floors running through the living and sleeping areas.
The kitchen has been freshly updated with stainless appliances and paint, countertops and opens to a light-filled dining area. A stone fireplace with gas logs anchors the living room, and there's a second fireplace in one of the bedrooms. The owner added a laundry closet in one bedroom for main-level convenience, and hookups remain in the basement.
Major systems are done: roof replaced in 2025, HVAC in 2018, electrical in 2017, water heater in 2026, plumbing updated to PVC, and thermal-pane windows. A natural gas generator conveys, along with the owned propane tank that fuels the gas logs; natural gas is available at the property for a buyer who prefers to convert. Spectrum internet service is in place.
The full basement adds roughly 1,800 square feet of workshop and storage beneath the home — with a woodstove and a fireplace to take the chill off. Interior stairs plus walk-out and walk-up access make it easy to move equipment in and out. Outside, a one-car attached carport opens onto a covered side porch, while a detached tandem carport and detached garage/workshop give you room for vehicles, equipment, and projects. Plus an additional outbuilding.
Public water, septic system, heat pump with central air, insulated windows, walk-in attic with fixed stairs, and built-in features throughout. No HOA, no restrictions.
Minutes from North Cove School and a short drive to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Caverns, Little Switzerland, and the hiking, fishing, and waterfalls of the western North Carolina mountains.
