For Sale $750,000
Two homes. Unbelievable views. One mountain sanctuary. Imagine your morning coffee on a 620 sq ft covered porch as long-range mountain vistas before you — this is life at 1856 Lickskillet Road. Set on 4.35 unrestricted acres in Yancey County, this fully renovated stick-built home offers 3,040 sq ft of total living space crafted with quality construction and timeless character. The main level anchors daily living — open great room with a Tulikivi wood-burning fireplace, quartz kitchen counter tops with custom cabinetry, formal dining, and a sunroom that captures the light all day. The upper and lower floors are each devoted entirely to a private retreat: expansive open-concept bedroom suites with sitting room, walk-in closet, and fully renovated bath - bedrooms do not have doors — hardwood, laminate, and tile throughout the home. A level backyard offers the perfect canvas for gardening enthusiasts, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the outdoors at your own pace. Above the 3-car garage, a fully independent 1,124 sq ft guest house awaits — 2 bedrooms, full bath, complete kitchen, and its own private deck where those same jaw-dropping views are yours to share. Whether you envision multigenerational living, an income-producing rental, or the ultimate mountain guest retreat, the possibilities here are as expansive as the scenery. No HOA. No restrictions. Privately maintained road. Two residences. Infinite possibilities.
