Located in the heart of the Foscoe community between Boone and Banner Elk, this beautifully updated mountain retreat blends warmth, functionality, and outdoor charm on just over half an acre. From the moment you arrive, the thoughtfully crafted hardscaping, fenced yard, and dramatic natural boulder create a setting that feels both inviting and uniquely High Country. Inside, the main level welcomes you with an open-concept design featuring luxury vinyl plank flooring, a spacious kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and a cozy living area centered around a gas fireplace. Vaulted ceilings and a stunning wall of windows fill the space with natural light while showcasing the backyard setting and seasonal views of Grandfather Mountain. A bedroom, a bonus room, a full bath, and laundry area complete the main level for easy everyday living. Upstairs, the generous loft offers flexible space for additional living, gaming, reading, or work-from-home needs and features hardwood flooring. The spacious primary bedroom area features vaulted ceilings, a massive walk-in closet, and access to an updated full bathroom just outside the room, creating a comfortable private retreat. The lower level offers exceptional versatility with a multi-room layout ideal for a den, office, recreation space, playroom, fitness area, hobby room, or guest overflow, along with a convenient half bath. The basement finish was reportedly completed by a previous owner without permits. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. Enjoy two separate deck spaces, evenings around the fire pit, and one of the property's most memorable features, an enormous natural boulder that creates a one-of-a-kind sitting and recreation area beneath it, offering a mountain setting that feels impossible to replicate. While the home offers functionality similar to a 3-bedroom layout, septic records indicate a 2-bedroom permit. Buyers looking for flexible living space, modern updates, outdoor enjoyment, and a convenient High Country location will appreciate everything this property has to offer.
