280 Bear River Lodge Trail, Marshall NC

Remarks:

Some homes invite you in. This one has already done the work. Positioned within Bear River Lodge — one of Madison County's most coveted gated communities — this beautifully appointed 3-bedroom, 3-bath home has been thoughtfully refreshed from top to bottom since purchase. A brand-new 2025 roof, fresh interior and exterior paint, granite countertops throughout, and a professionally encapsulated crawlspace mean the next owner inherits a home that's genuinely move-in ready with no deferred maintenance surprises waiting around the corner. Inside, cathedral ceilings and a statement fireplace anchor an open great room designed for gathering. The chef's kitchen — now finished with granite — flows naturally to the dining area and out to covered porches built for mountain mornings. The screened porch is wired and ready for a hot tub, making it easy to add that finishing touch on your timeline. The primary suite is on the main level, offering ease and privacy, while two additional bedrooms and a large finished bonus room upstairs provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or a bunk room that STR guests will love. Step outside and the setting does the rest. The community clubhouse and Big Laurel Creek — prized trout waters and a gathering place for residents — are just a short walk from the front door. The Appalachian Trail, Hot Springs, and the French Broad River corridor are all within easy reach. Fiber internet keeps remote workers connected. And with STR use explicitly permitted in the community covenants, this property works equally well as a personal retreat or an income-producing asset. Gated community. Paved roads. Clubhouse access. Two-car garage. 40 minutes to Asheville. This is the one that checks every box — already done.
