Property Description

Just three houses from Main Street, 191 Chestnut Drive presents a rare combination of an in-town Blowing Rock location and the privacy and character of a mountain cottage. Restaurants, shops, parks, and downtown amenities are just steps away, while the beautifully landscaped grounds create a remarkably secluded setting. Originally built in 1980 and extensively renovated in 2016 by its third owners, the 2,760-square-foot English cottage was thoughtfully reimagined by Sketchline Architecture and Mullshine Builders to retain the warmth and character of a traditional Blowing Rock home while providing the comfort and functionality of an updated residence. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home is distinguished by custom millwork, built-in cabinetry, hardwood floors, and architectural details that reflect a lasting sense of craftsmanship. The main level offers a thoughtfully arranged living environment, with the primary suite and principal living spaces all conveniently located on one level. The living room is anchored by a true masonry, wood-burning fireplace, while the adjacent dining area is filled with natural light. The kitchen features abundant cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, black granite countertops, a generously sized island with a traditional ogee edge, a farmhouse sink, and stainless-steel KitchenAid appliances. The main-level primary suite features two walk-in closets, a dual vanity, and a walk-in shower. A mudroom and laundry area provide additional storage and everyday convenience. Upstairs, two guest bedrooms share an expansive full bathroom with a freestanding soaking tub, separate shower, and tiled floor. A circular driveway provides convenient access to both a traditional front entrance and a separate kitchen entrance. The back porch extends the living space outdoors, offering both covered and open-air areas finished with Ipe decking, a durable Brazilian hardwood. Mature landscaping is central to the property's appeal. Climbing red roses, hydrangeas, ferns, blueberry bushes, peonies, hostas, and flowering perennials create a succession of color and texture throughout the grounds. In the backyard, mature rhododendrons form a natural enclosure, creating an unexpected sense of privacy off of Main Street. A fire pit provides an inviting gathering place within the gardens, while a CPI-monitored security system offers additional peace of mind. From the Blue Ridge Parkway to the restaurants, boutiques, and galleries of Main Street, Blowing Rock offers a distinctive sense of place and year-round appeal. Within this setting, 191 Chestnut Drive stands apart for its architectural character, quality craftsmanship, established gardens, and exceptional proximity to downtown.
