Remarks:
A private mountain retreat just 10 minutes from downtown Waynesville. Tucked at the back of the property and overlooking an expansive, acre-wide forested meadow, this light-filled 4-bedroom, 3-bath A-frame offers stunning views of Eagles Nest Mountain and a rare sense of peace and privacy—without sacrificing convenience. Soaring north-facing windows fill the great room with natural light, while white oak hardwoods, warm wood accents and a soothing palette create an inviting mountain-modern feel. The spacious kitchen features updated appliances and a built-in dining area, and the main-level primary suite offers porch access, peaceful views and a beautifully updated bath with a freestanding tub and glass-enclosed shower. A second stylishly renovated bath serves the upper-level guest rooms. Downstairs, a massive unfinished basement provides exceptional flexibility for a workshop, storage, recreation space or future expansion, along with dedicated garage parking. Outside, the freshly stained wraparound porch invites you to slow down, take in the mountain views and enjoy a property filled with mature landscaping, mountain laurel, lilies and established blueberry bushes. A Generac generator adds peace of mind. Whether you’re searching for a full-time mountain home or a peaceful weekend escape, this distinctive Walnut Creek retreat offers the privacy, views and proximity to town that are increasingly hard to find.
