If you want a big gorge view, walk-to-town and a completely renovated home, this is your Blowing Rock mountain home! The footprint of the home was built in 1895 and it was lovingly gutted in 2005-07. Rare, extinct, clear chestnut boarding, shiplap, aged pine & hardwood floors and exposed rough hewn beams give this home its quintessential historic mountain home feel. Almost every room has a cascading mountain view of St. John's gorge in the heart of Blowing Rock. Heated stone floors warm the kitchen that boasts a mountain cooled wine cellar and a dumbwaiter which ferries your meals, appetizers and drinks up a level to the generous great room. The master suite's tin roof will lull you to sleep and the footed tub will soak your cares away. Three sun-drenched bedrooms on the top floor will accommodate family retreats and gatherings. A steel beam reinforced parking pad serves 2 parking spaces and a 3rd space is in the nook of the front stone wall. But the ocean-of-clouds view, the tapestry-of-fall-colors view, the undulating Blue Ridge mountain view is why you will treasure this home and why you will be the envy of your friends.
