Tucked away on 1.67 private wooded acres, this thoughtfully designed timber frame home, built by Futral Construction, blends classic mountain architecture with clean, contemporary finishes in the established Autumn Valley Estates community. Home to many long-time full-time residents, the neighborhood offers a peaceful mountain setting just 15 minutes from both Highlands, NC and Dillard, GA. Expansive windows fill the open floor plan with natural light, while exposed timber beams and a striking see-through stucco fireplace create warmth and character. The main-level primary suite provides the ease of single-level living, while the upper-level second suite offers privacy with a balcony. Two covered porches overlook the wooded property and seasonal short-range mountain views. The one-car garage includes a spacious storage room, providing additional space for outdoor gear, hobbies, or a workshop. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a mountain retreat, or an investment property with short-term rental potential, this home offers quality craftsmanship, privacy, and a setting that embraces the beauty of the mountains. Seller and owner is a licensed North Carolina real estate agent.
