Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
We fell in love with this unique property at first glance while vacationing in Black Mountain NC in 2004 One thing led to another and we have built a lovely Victorian home accented with our Carriage Cottage built in 2007.
Why the Owner Chose Burnsville
The decision to buy and build on this property was easy, we both love the 4 seasons which was absent in Florida. We longed for the views of the mountains especially in the fall. The diversity of the area provides endless activities that we love
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
We are surrounded by water features you can sleep with your windows open and hear Horton Creek flowing by. The land has numerous wild flowers, butterflies, wild berries, humming birds. Hiking around the property is an adventure.
