Property Description

Tucked into a lovely gated community at the base of Grandfather Mountain, this log-sided cabin in Banner Elk is the kind of mountain getaway people dream about. With beautiful winter views and a magical setting for spring, summer, and fall, the front yard adds just the right dose of whimsical charm. Kick back on the front porch with a cup of coffee or glass of wine—Whether you’re in the rocking chairs or the porch swing, you’ll be surrounded by rustling trees, cool breezes, and the kind of natural beauty that instantly slows you down. The stone wood-burning fireplace is the heart of the main living area—perfect for post-ski nights or board game marathons. The main level features a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet, plus a well-appointed kitchen, dining area, and open living space that feels both warm and functional. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, and downstairs you’ll find a second living area/game room, access to the hot tub, and a bonus room with an ensuite bathroom currently used as additional sleeping space—plenty of room to comfortably host 10–12 guests. Outside, you've got room to spread out, space to unwind, and a yard made for fire pits, barefoot mornings, and backyard adventures. Plus a new roof was installed in May of 2025. The location couldn’t be more central—just minutes to Banner Elk, Seven Devils, and Sugar Mountain, with easy access to hiking, skiing, and all the High Country adventures. Never rented, just loved as a second home—but it would make a killer short-term rental. This one checks all the boxes.
