FALL IN THE MOUNTAINS IS ALMOST HERE—and this home is perfectly positioned for the show! Tucked high above Appalachian Ski Mountain, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat offers sweeping, layered Blue Ridge views, spectacular western sunsets, and a front-row seat to the brilliant fall foliage expected to unfold over the coming weeks. With an improved price and multiple income opportunities, this is an exceptional value in Blowing Rock. Set on a double lot for added privacy and view protection, extensive tree removal has opened up expansive long-range vistas. Enjoy morning coffee as the mountains emerge from the mist, crisp fall evenings around the fire, and changing autumn color stretching across the ridgelines. Recent improvements include refinished solid-wood kitchen cabinets and island, fresh interior paint, a refreshed primary en-suite bath, updated upstairs living room/office, and a freshly painted downstairs apartment. A new Rinnai tankless/on-demand hot water system was installed in August 2026. A new septic permit is currently in process, with the Health Department scheduled for 10/19/26. The versatile layout offers exceptional flexibility for both personal use and income potential. Two long-term rental apartments and a successful Airbnb suite on the lower level, plus a private mother-in-law suite on the main floor, each have separate entrances—providing privacy and independence for owners, guests, and tenants. Ample parking easily accommodates multiple households and visitors. Also included are a 30" Troy-Bilt snow blower and electric generator with a dedicated panel hardwired into the home to power major needs during an outage. Whether you're looking for a family compound, income-producing investment, or a mountain home that can help pay for itself, this property offers a rare combination of views, versatility, privacy, and income potential—just minutes from Boone, Blowing Rock, skiing, dining, hiking, and everything the High Country has to offer.
