Beautiful new construction in a convenient Fleetwood location, just minutes from Hwy 221! Quality craftsmanship and thoughtful finishes are evident throughout this inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home. The spacious great room features a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling and an open design that flows easily into the kitchen and dining area. An electric fireplace with handsome surround and wood mantel is being added to create a warm focal point for the great room and is expected to be completed by the end of October. The kitchen offers granite countertops, GE stainless appliances, abundant cabinetry and a large island with bar seating. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy, with a comfortable primary suite featuring a beautifully finished bath with porcelain tile shower. Two additional bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home and share a convenient Jack-and-Jill bath. A separate powder room and laundry/mudroom add to the home's functionality. Durable LVP flooring throughout and a neutral color palette make this home truly move-in ready. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a spacious front porch, partially covered beneath a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling — a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the fresh mountain air. The natural, low-maintenance setting complements the home beautifully, with a mulched landscape accented by mature trees and large native stones rather than a traditional lawn, leaving more time to simply enjoy your mountain home. The location offers the best of both Ashe and Watauga County destinations — approximately 6.7 miles from West Jefferson, where you'll find a vibrant downtown with locally owned shops, art galleries, and restaurants, and approximately 21.2 miles from Boone, home to Appalachian State University, downtown shopping and dining, arts and entertainment, and easy access to the many outdoor recreational opportunities of the High Country. Offered furnished and with short-term rentals permitted, this home is ready to enjoy from day one and is well suited for use as a full-time residence, mountain getaway or vacation rental. Situated on approximately 1.45 acres, this thoughtfully designed new home combines quality construction, comfortable one-level living, a low-maintenance mountain setting and a wonderfully convenient location.
