Nestled on 3.5 acres just 10 minutes from downtown Boone, this 2,880-square-foot passive solar Enertia home offers the perfect blend of sustainability and comfort. The home has been deemed as one of the most energy-efficient homes in the High Country by Kent Hively, owner of High Country Energy Solutions. Thoughtfully designed with 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a convenient half bath, this one-of-a-kind residence is filled with distinctive features rarely found in the High Country. The inviting layout was made for gathering, with a light-filled sun porch, expansive covered front porch, and spacious side deck. Adding to the property's appeal, Howard's Creek border...s the land, offering the opportunity to enjoy catching North Carolina wild trout. The unusually flat backyard creates the perfect setting for outdoor recreation. Completing the property is an oversized garage with ample space for more than just your vehicles, while the spacious driveway provides lots of parking for family and guests. Combining energy-efficient passive solar design with the timeless beauty of its natural setting, this home is unlike anything else on the market. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence or mountain getaway, this extraordinary property delivers a lifestyle that is as unique as the home itself.
