Property Description

Just minutes from downtown Banner Elk, this cozy log cabin offers a blend of rustic charm, modern comfort and serene natural surroundings. On 2.7 acres with a creek flowing through the front yard, the setting is peaceful and incredibly picturesque. Warm wood interiors, a stone fireplace, and thoughtfully designed living spaces make this mountain retreat feel welcoming and functional. The home features three bedrooms and two full baths, while the second floor provides additional flexible space. A room used as the primary bedroom and a loft-style sleeping area offer extra accommodation options but are not included in the official square footage due to ceiling height restrictions. There's also another loft, offering even more room for guests, storage or creative use. Despite what's on paper, this home lives larger than expected. The kitchen has been updated with new appliances and is fully equipped for everything from quiet dinners to cooking for a crowd. Outdoors, a spacious covered deck overlooks the creek. The covered front and side porches create cozy spaces to relax and dine alfresco. A flagstone patio with seating and a fire pit area provides ideal spots for entertaining and enjoying time with friends and family. Just a short drive to the heart of Banner Elk, you’ll enjoy easy access to restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and year-round activities like hiking, biking, skiing and snowboarding. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a weekend getaway or a smart investment property, this charming cabin offers a rare opportunity to enjoy High Country lifestyle in a magical setting. The professional measurements came in at 443 square feet less than the tax information due to ceiling height restrictions.
