“‘What A View!”

“‘What A View!”Perched high in the hills you will feel like you truly have a birds eye view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. From the comfort of the swivel chairs on the covered porch you look out over the surrounding trees and green rolling hills in the valley to the distant peaks of the blue-tinted mountains that give them their name. Located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, the house is minutes from the village of Blowing Rock, Tweetsie Railroad, Cone Manor, Grandfather Mountain, and Appalachian State University. The charm of the mountains are all nearby with many hiking trails. Try a tasting at one of the local wineries or breweries, or just enjoy your own happy hour on the balcony.There is just one step into the main level which features an open floor plan so the cook can converse with everyone from the well stocked kitchen to the dining and living rooms. Down the hall are 2 bedrooms – one with a full bed and the other with 2 twin beds – and a full bath between.Upstairs is a large loft with more games and toys than a kid could hope for. The loft also has a half bath for convenience. There is a small TV with a video library of classic movies.Downstairs is a game room with dart board and bumper pool, laundry room and the master suite with a queen bed and a nice walk in shower.When you have filled your lungs with the fresh air and just can’t relax anymore, there are so many activities waiting for you within a short drive…the house is located near mm288 just off the Blue Ridge Parkway between Boone and Blowing Rock…take a leisurely cruise on the Parkway in search of the perfect hiking trail, wade in the cool water of a Price Lake stream, take the 1 mile scenic (and flat) walk around Bass Lake then marvel at the high quality crafts at the Cone Manor. No trip to the highlands is complete without a drive to the top of Grandfather Mountain to traverse across the Mile High Swinging Bridge. Not much further down the road is Linville Caverns and Falls. And if you have the young ones with you, Tweetsie is a must…you can hear the whistle blow from the house! After fun filled days come home to the comfort of your retreat high on the hill.The atmosphere and furnishings of this home exudes comfort. It is a cool reprieve from the heat of summer and it wraps you in warmth during the cool months. The high ceilings and beautiful wood wall paneling complete the picture perfect mountain home. We promise, you will never want to leave…but you can always come back again!
