Set off the beaten path yet still convenient to everything, this mountain home is a 20~ minute drive to Boone and Banner Elk, and only about 10 minutes to historic Valle Crucis, Mast General Store, and Valle Crucis Community Park. Situated at approximately 3,600 feet in elevation, the cabin offers long-range mountain views and a rare 1.57-acre double lot with a flat, open yard—an uncommon find in the mountains. The expansive green space is ideal for dogs, gardening, outdoor games, frisbee golf, gathering around the firepit, or possibly adding an additional structure. The main level showcases true log cabin character with real log construction, tongue-and-groove ceilings throughout, a generous kitchen and dining area with abundant built-in storage, and a warm living room with soaring vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and access to the covered back porch. The wraparound covered porch extends the living space outdoors, offering a wonderful place to take in the mountain views and fresh High Country air. Upstairs, the spacious primary loft suite features vaulted ceilings, a closet, ensuite bath, large windows, natural light, and mountain views. The loft could also be converted into an enclosed bedroom if desired. The lower level includes two oversized secondary bedrooms with access to the lower covered deck and yard, along with a full bath, laundry room, storage room, and additional closet space. Being sold furnished, Eagles View Cabin is well suited as a full-time residence, seasonal mountain getaway, or short-term rental. The home also offers ample parking and easy access to the main level. Located in the desirable Valle Crucis school district, and within Hunters Ridge—an established cabin community in the center of the High Country—this property combines many features that are hard to find together: a large usable yard, long-range views, central location, mountain character, and flexible use potential. From quiet mornings on the wraparound porch to evenings around the firepit, Eagles View Cabin invites you to embrace the mountain lifestyle. Sold fully furnished.
