About This Home

Tucked away on 3 SCENIC ACRES in Laurel Mountain Estates community, this thoughtfully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a rare combination of privacy, modern finishes, and close proximity to Watauga Lake--just 3 minutes (1.3 miles) from Lakeview Marina. Spanning a total of 3.09 acres, the property includes a 1.53-acre homesite along with an additional 1.56-acre wooded parcel, creating a private, peaceful setting with room to expand or simply enjoy the surrounding nature. A gently winding gravel driveway leads you through mature trees, setting the tone for the quiet retreat that awaits. The home's exterior blends stone and siding for timeless curb appeal, while the spacious front porch provides the perfect spot to unwind and take in the tranquil surroundings. Inside, the open layout is enhanced by vaulted ceilings, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a cozy stone gas fireplace that adds warmth and character to the main living space. The kitchen is both stunning and functional featuring custom full-height cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The dining area is highlighted by a wood accent wall and offers access to a hidden walk-in butler's pantry--an unexpected and highly functional feature with abundant shelving and storage. The primary suite is designed for comfort and convenience, offering a generous walk-in closet with direct access to the laundry room, complete with cabinetry, a utility sink, and a tankless water heater. The en-suite bathroom features dual vanities with marble countertops and updated fixtures. On the opposite side of the home, you will find a secondary bedroom and full bathroom. As you step outside you will enjoy the screened-in porch and the back deck overlooking the level, wooded backyard--providing the ideal setting for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. Two detached storage sheds offer added flexibility for storage, hobbies, or equipment. With access to city water, fiber internet, and the potential for short-term rentals, this home offers an excellent opportunity for a primary residence, second home, or investment property--all in a highly desirable location near Watauga Lake. **Lot lines depicted in listing photos are approximate and for illustrative purposes only.
