The central pedestrian area in Blowing Rock stretches from the Blowing Rock Art & History Museum and St. Mary of the Hills on the south side of Main Street to the Speckled Trout and Camp Coffee Roasters on the north side, with the park as well as several shops and restaurants in between. Most people, including many locals, do not realize that there is a family home on Main Street within this central pedestrian area. They pass it riding down Main Street, and if they stop by the post office, they drive right alongside this quaint 1920's brick home as they exit. It's a quiet, happy little place right in the heart of Blowing Rock.
We bought this home last fall, intending to retire there. But with retirement a decade or two away, we plan to rent this two-bedroom, two-bathroom house to those who share our passion for village living in Blowing Rock. We plan to start short-term rentals by late spring. Until then, you can follow our progress on our blog. You can also send us questions at ben@945main.com.
