About this property

Rustic Updated Cabin in the Heart of the Appalachian High Country

Escape to our charming little cabin, nestled on 15 acres of rolling pastureland and Christmas tree fields in the serene foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Built in the 1940s as a tenant farmer’s home, this hidden gem sits quietly up the hill behind our big old farmhouse, offering privacy and tranquility. Relax on the porch, watch the birds, and stargaze under clear mountain skies.
Located in Ashe County, in North Carolina’s northwest corner near the Virginia line, you’re just minutes from adventure:

-15 minutes to Grayson Highlands State Park
-20 minutes to White Top Mountain, Mount Rogers, the Appalachian Trail, and the Virginia Creeper Bike Trail
-Steps away from Helton Creek, a local favorite for fishing, just across the road
-Short drives to the New River and New River State Park

For a taste of local culture, explore nearby West Jefferson—a quaint town with boutique shops, cafes, a cheese factory, brewery, and a small museum in the historic courthouse. Enjoy the Saturday farmers market or summer street festivals featuring old-time and bluegrass music. Boone, Blowing Rock, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are just an hour away.
Perfect for nature lovers, music enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a peaceful getaway, our cabin offers a slice of mountain life with all the comforts of home.

About the host

Hosted by Rosemary Julian

I was born on the outskirts of London in Essex and moved to Virginia in the 1980s. The rolling mountains and crisp air of Ashe County remind me of England’s climate, which is part of why my husband and I fell in love with this special corner of North Carolina. We’re delighted to share our cozy cabin and this beautiful 15-acre property with you!

Why they chose this property

This cabin sits on a 15-acre slice of my late husband’s family land, settled in 1798 by the first registered inhabitants of Ashe County. The property has stayed in the family ever since. The big white farmhouse at the entrance, built in the 1890s, welcomes you to this historic retreat. My husband and I retired here 15 years ago to live full-time, drawn by the serenity, cool mountain summers, and warm Southern charm. We think you’ll love it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Our cozy cabin offers a rare blend of history, seclusion, and natural beauty. Built in the 1940s as a tenant farmer’s home, it’s tucked away on 15 acres of family land settled in 1798—the first registered property in Ashe County. Surrounded by rolling pastures and a Christmas tree grove, it’s a peaceful hideaway where you can unwind, watch birds, and stargaze under the Appalachian sky. Just down the hill stands our big white farmhouse, built in the 1890s, adding a touch of timeless charm. This isn’t just a rental—it’s a piece of living history, paired with the cool mountain air and Southern hospitality we’ve cherished since retiring here 15 years ago.
