The property has lovingly been nicknamed "Okumin", as in, "Oh, come in"! When you see it you will understand what a welcoming environment it is. It is just far enough away to hear the breeze instead of traffic, with a setting that offers privacy, peaceful surroundings, and ample night skies.
And… Read More still you are just close enough for a quick trip to the grocery store and an evening at West First. Close enough to access the new rails-to-trails greenway, grab coffee, or enjoy the Kellog Center sculptures.
Outdoor enjoyment is a defining feature of the location, with convenient access to Dupont State Recreational Forest, Pisgah National Forest, Turkey Pens, Mills River, Bent Creek trailheads, Kanuga, and Ride Rock Creek, all within thirty minutes or less. The setting was carefully chosen and cherished for more than twenty years by an original Pisgah mountain bike guide.
The home strikes a comfortable balance between space and efficiency—room enough for everyday living without unnecessary excess.
A long driveway creates a sense of separation from the road, while the surrounding landscape provides a peaceful backdrop throughout the seasons. Nature is part of the experience here, with wildlife frequently found in the surrounding area, including deer, turkey, bobcats, bears, woodpeckers, crows, jays, songbirds, and hummingbirds.
Enjoy long-distance winter views, summer shade, colorful sunrises and sunsets, and exceptionally dark night skies where the stars take center stage. A property designed around the simple pleasures of mountain living: peace and quiet, connection to nature, and a setting that invites you to slow down and take it all in. Just right for the next chapter. Read Less
