Nestled in the picturesque South Toe community of Yancey County, this beautifully updated ranch-style home offers the perfect blend of mountain living and modern comfort. Located less than a half mile from the scenic South Toe River, the property is surrounded by some of Western North Carolina's most sought-after outdoor destinations, including Mount Mitchell and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The area continues to grow with the ongoing reconstruction of the Toe River Campground, Mount Mitchell Golf Course, and the bridge connecting Blue Rock Road to the South Toe community. This inviting home features two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms and has been thoughtfully remodeled with a spacious open-concept floor plan, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen has been remodeled with an Italian Tuscany style theme. The former two-car garage has been professionally converted into a large, heated bonus room, adding approximately 400 square feet of living space. This versatile space could easily serve as a family room, media room, home office, fitness area, or recreation room. Comfort is ensured year-round with electric baseboard heat throughout the home. A recently installed Pittsburgh Huron wood-burning stove, complete with a blower system, efficiently heats the home while significantly reducing the need for supplemental electric heat. Following Hurricane Helene, the home experienced minor water seepage into the crawlspace through foundation vents due to exceptional storm runoff. The issue was addressed thoroughly and professionally. The vapor barrier was removed, the crawlspace was allowed to dry completely over a six-week period, and new floor insulation and a replacement vapor barrier along with mold fogging for prevention of any further mold. To further enhance drainage and protect the property, a substantial French drain system was added along the rear of the home. The drain measures approximately 24 inches deep and 16 inches wide, includes 4-inch perforated pipe surrounded by gravel, and is connected to the underground rear gutter drainage system. These improvements provide enhanced protection against future heavy rainfall events. Aside from the crawlspace seepage, the home remained structurally sound and weathered the storm well. Designed for convenient one-level living, all primary living areas are located on the main floor, making this home ideal for a variety of lifestyles. Additional storage is available in both the detached shed, laundry room, and an extra out building located at the bottom of the driveway. Just a short walk away, you'll find the beautiful South Toe River, where you can enjoy fishing, relaxing by the water, and experiencing the natural beauty that makes this area so special. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, a mountain retreat, or a vacation getaway, this exceptional property offers comfort, versatility, and easy access to the breathtaking scenery and outdoor recreation of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

This former mountain farm is the perfect place to build a vacation home or a secluded year-round home. The 1920s era farmhouse has not been lived in many years and is likely a teardown. A small stream runs alongside of Will Wilson Road which divides the property. The approximately 15 +/- acres lay surprisingly well and are mostly usable. The approximately 2-acre tract located across the road from the house has a former home site with a source of water located nearby. The property also has saleable timber that could be harvested if desired. This listing offers numerous potential home sites throughout the property. The barn located on the west side of the property needs some roof repairs but is otherwise in good condition and has had electricity run to it. Several acres of pasture surround the barn and could easily be bush hogged to bring back into full use. The beautiful mountain town of Burnsville is 17 miles away. Burnsville features multiple restaurants, grills and even a popular brewery. If you love the outdoors, this property is the place for you. The pristine waters of Cane River are a short 5-minute drive away. Hunting, fishing, hiking and camping are in abundant supply without even leaving the county. If your dream is a quiet life away from the hustle and bustle, you need to see this property.
