Life is better at the rooftop level, so why not buy a home with a rooftop deck and mountain views≠ This unique 3-bed, 2.5-bath home in Roan Mountain has not only that but a whole array of charming features that would make this an awesome primary or secondary residence. The current owners have made many recent updates to the home, including replacing the roof & gutters (on the house, detached 2-car garage, & 40-foot RV garage), updating the flooring, applying fresh paint, and replacing most home appliances. It also offers the fun quirkiness perfect for an Airbnb. Sitting at an elevation of over 3,600 feet, this home offers beautiful mountain views from the panoramic windows on the main level, a peaceful screened-in porch, 3 patios, a large primary suite with its own fireplace, bathroom, and walk-in closet, an updated kitchen, and the charm and character of a mid-century Roan Mountain cottage. The lower level of the property has outdoor access and offers an additional living space, half-bath, sauna, soaking tub, laundry room, and storage space. With a bit of creativity, this level could conveniently be turned into a mother-in-law suite for visiting guests. Sitting on over a half acre of land and partially surrounded by rhododendrons, this property presents privacy, fertile soil for a garden, wildlife viewing, and space for outdoor activities and hobbies. It's also only a handful of miles from the renowned Carvers Gap and Roan Mountain State Park.
