Nestled in the heart of North Carolina's High Country, this exceptional 38-acre mountain retreat offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of a lush green valley surrounded by the natural beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Located just 15 minutes from Mountain City, TN, 30 minutes from West Jefferson, and 45 minutes from Boone, the scenic drive home winds through some of the region's most breathtaking mountain landscapes. The property is tucked into a peaceful valley carved by Roaring Fork Creek, which originates on the southern slopes of Pond Mountain. Just beyond your property lies the 3,000-acre Pond Mountain Game Lands and Nature Preserve, featuring miles of hiking and horseback riding trails, abundant wildlife, and elevations ranging from approximately 3,000 to over 5,000 feet. Whether you're an avid outdoorsman, equestrian enthusiast, or simply appreciate the tranquility of nature, this setting is truly extraordinary. The meticulously maintained brick ranch, built in 1976, reflects decades of exceptional care and pride of ownership. Offering 1,738 square feet of comfortable single-level living, the home features three bedrooms, two full baths, a spacious living area, and a bright glass-enclosed sunroom where you can enjoy year-round views of the surrounding woods and frequent visits from deer, wild turkey, songbirds, and other native wildlife. The home is primarily heated and cooled by an efficient electric heat pump system, while a beautiful brick fireplace with a wood-burning insert provides warmth and ambiance on cool mountain evenings. An electric hot water system and all-electric utilities contribute to easy maintenance and dependable year-round comfort. Downstairs, the full 1,189-square-foot unfinished basement is clean, dry, and ready for storage, hobbies, or future expansion. A detached 742-square-foot brick garage/workshop provides excellent space for vehicles, equipment, woodworking, or other projects. The 38 wooded acres provide outstanding privacy while offering a mix of mature timber, springs, gently rolling terrain, and endless opportunities for hiking, hunting, ATV riding, gardening, or simply enjoying your own mountain sanctuary. With both long-term and short-term rentals permitted, the property also offers excellent investment and recreational possibilities. Properties that combine substantial acreage, a meticulously maintained home, and immediate access to thousands of acres of protected mountain wilderness are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, family retreat, or legacy property to enjoy for generations, 420 Roaring Fork Road offers the privacy, beauty, and lifestyle that define the very best of the North Carolina High Country.
