Property Description
Discover this rare opportunity in the heart of Banner Elk, just one minute from downtown, perfectly positioned on 2.66 acres overlooking Lees-McRae College, Grandfather Mountain, and the surrounding Blue Ridge peaks. This beautifully manicured property sits atop a gentle hill, offering privacy, rolling green space, and the peaceful sounds of nature — all while being just moments from local dining, shops, and outdoor adventures.
It's common to spot deer, black bear, and native wildlife roaming the property, and a hiking trail at the edge of the land connects to a stream leading directly to the Lees-McRae duck pond, adding to the tranquil mountain charm.
The home is thoughtfully designed with two distinct living spaces — think large family home, a multi-generational retreat, or a turnkey short-term rental investment.
Main Level (Primary Residence)
Enter through the welcoming front porch into a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace, and sweeping mountain views from the back porch. The main level includes:
• 3 bedrooms
• Kitchen and dining area
• Walk-in pantry
• Sauna — envision après-ski relaxation
Upper Level (Short-Term Rental Suite)
With a separate entrance and dedicated parking, the upstairs is fully equipped as a separate rental or guest suite. Features include:
• Open living room and kitchen
• Small office/flex space
• 3 bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom
Outside, enjoy a storage shed for tools and gear, plus ample space for gardens or outdoor living areas.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful mountain home, a multi-family getaway, or a revenue-producing property, this Banner Elk gem offers the perfect balance of seclusion, scenery, and convenience.
