If you love views, Gateway to Pisgah will thrill you! The long-range gorge views are expansive and visible through glass doors and windows throughout the house. Twilight, on a starry, starry night will take your breath away! In the summer cool mountain breezes abound. And if outdoor adventure is your love, the property adjoins Pisgah National Forest and the popular Cone Manor Trail System! The grounds are beautifully landscaped with native plants and flowers. Shopping and dining in the center of downtown Blowing Rock are less than 2 miles away!
If you are seeking a relaxing and cozy hideaway, there are two fireplaces, one gas fireplace downstairs, and one fireplace used exclusively for manufactured logs upstairs. Two separate living areas make it easy for private time as well as gathering together. The home has central heat and air conditioning, a Smart TV, Spectrum WiFi, and a spacious kitchen, stocked with all the essential utensils, dishes, glassware, and a Keurig, to make a snack or a full holiday meal or a fresh cup of morning brew to take in the view.
The main level King bedroom has an ensuite bath with a newly remodeled combination tub/shower and Jack and Jill sink. You will love the comfy bedding and the clean, sleek lines of the decor. Floors are light wood with area rugs, lighting is ample, and there is a desk for working or writing. A dresser and closet provide space for your belongings.
The downstairs King bedroom is slightly smaller, with equally nice decor, wood floors, and lighting, plus a large dresser to hold your belongings and has direct access to the lower deck. Both bedrooms have large glass doors so you can enjoy the view plus heavy drapes when you want privacy.
The downstairs sitting room with fireplace and large smart TV is sure to please anyone young at heart who wants to gather for a movie or stream a favorite series. One end of the sitting room has two Queen beds for extra guests and there is a pull-out sofa as well, near the fireplace. If you prefer to disengage from blue light when you retire, the two King bedrooms are set up purely for sleep and relaxation, without the distraction of in-room screens, although WiFi and outlets are still available for those who want it. The downstairs bedrooms share a bath with a combination tub/shower.
There is a full-sized washer/dryer for use during your stay.
