Located in scenic Avery County, secluded yet close to town, Alpenhaus is located at over 4000 ft. The house features 2 enclosed decks and is surrounded by woods on 3 sides. Wake up to green trees outside your bedroom window or watch the sunrise reflected on the mountains. Look out for foxes as you enjoy breakfast on the south facing deck. In autumn, watch the leaves change from green to hues of red and gold. Enjoy a game of golf at Mountain Glen Golf Club or take a short drive to Grandfather Mountain or Linville Falls, drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway or go hiking or rafting, see the stalagtites at Linville Caverns and then come back to appreciate the sunset from the living room window. In winter, enjoy a day of skiing or sledding at nearby Beech Mountain or Sugar Mountain. Jonas Ridge Snow Tubing is also nearby. Return home, build a snowman and enjoy the gas log fireplace which takes the mountain chill off the evenings. Experience our fully appointed kitchen if you choose to eat in or venture out to local restaurants in nearby Linville, Banner Elk, Boone, or even Asheville. Enjoy the Wooly Worm Festival, Valle Crucis Fair, Music on the Mountaintop, Land of OZ, Singing on the Mountain, Highland Games, Shag at Sugar, Oktoberfest at Sugar Mt., Arts and Crafts shows, and much more. Then return a short distance to the quiet of your mountain getaway.

                    Recently my son and I planned a father/son getaway(father-53/son-26). We chose to stay here at the"Mountain Top Getaway with Sunset Views". Our stay was incredible! We felt right at home when we walked in the door. We had all the comforts of home. The house is centrally located to so many attractions, yet you have all the privacy you need and the view from the house and the porches is awesome! I have allready added this post to my favorites and plan to stay here in the future. Thanks so much for offering this home to us. Thanks Deb!

                    We had a wonderful stay here! It is comfortable. spacious and very clean! The owners were kind and responsive to my husband's need for internet service, setting it up prior to our arrival. The location is excellent: close to town, yet wooded and private with a beautiful night view of the tiny twinkling lights of the town far below. Only a short drive to Grandfather Mountain, Lynnville Falls, Blue Ridge Parkway, etc and the paved roads leading all the way to the home are a plus. A comfortable home away from home! Thanks Deb!

                    Owner response: Thanks for the kind words. I love this house, I'm glad you do too!

                  Year Purchased: 1982

                  About the owner: Grandma & Grandpa built this house to be close to their grandchildren. Now we want to share this lovely spot with you

                  Why the Owner Chose Newland:
                  The Blue Ridge Mountains are a magical place to live. This house is right in the woods and has many windows so you seem to be outside even when you are in. There are many different birds, and a family of foxes. The cool evening mountain air is just the thing after a warm summer day.

                  The Unique Benefits at this House:
                  After a day of shopping, hiking, walking, or sightseeing, this is a cozy and comfortable home to return to. It is near the Blue Ridge Parkway, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Falls & Linville Caverns. Avery County is centrally located so you can be in Blowing Rock or Boone in 30 miniutes or less or venture further to Black Mountain or Asheville.
