Property Details
YOU'LL NEVER WANT TO LEAVE...
This spacious Lower Laurel Park home has been beautifully renovated, while keeping some of the home's original charm.
IN THE HEART OF IT ALL...
Close to downtown historic Hendersonville NC, this newly renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom retreat is nestled in the highly sought-after neighborhood of Lower Laurel Park. A comfortable living space and large private yard with lush surroundings in a peaceful neighborhood makes you feel like you have the best of both worlds. Attention to detail and all the amenities set this home apart from everything else you can find this close to everything the area has to offer. The Ecusta Trail runs just on the other side of the main road and is almost complete. Hop on the trail with your bike in seconds and ride to Dupont State Forest, or walk to downtown Hendersonville.
DETAILS & SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS...
Immerse yourself in the sweet mountain surroundings as you enter the driveway and are welcomed by the peaceful front porch with rocking chairs - perfect for enjoying the cool mountain air with a cup of morning coffee. Enter the home to find a comfortable living area with gas fireplace and 55 inch flat-screen TV. Accents of the home's original charm can be found in door hardware, heavy wood doors, refinished hardwood floors and beautiful trim throughout the home. The updated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances has all the necessary equipment to cook your favorite meals. An inviting sunroom flooded with light is a great space to work at the desk, or curl up with a good book on the sofa. The sofa is a queen sleeper sofa, so is great for a guest to close the blinds and sleep comfortably. In the dining room, a large table for 6 invites you to come together. Enjoy the local artwork of old Hendersonville and the nearby Parkway views. Steps away is your large main suite with King size bed and large flat-screen TV. The main bath has a soaking tub, separate shower with body jets and rain shower and double sink. Off the living area is a second bedroom with King size bed and flat screen TV. Across the hall is the second bathroom with walk in shower and double sink. The third bedroom is just inside the entry with a queen bed (after December 2024 bookings) and until then will be as pictured- full on bottom, twin on top bunk style beds.
There is plenty of storage and space for luggage in large closets in every room. The laundry area is in the hallway just off the kitchen and dining room.
OUTDOOR LIVING...
Step outside from the sunroom onto a screened in porch with cozy seating area and new hot tub. Another back door leads onto the oversized porch from the laundry area which is connected to the screened porch. A gas grill and 8 person outdoor table welcomes you to dine under the stars. The fenced backyard has a fire pit and stone area with Adirondack chairs where you can roast marshmallows for smores or relax by the warmth under a canopy of tall bamboo that surrounds the property. Private and tranquil, yet just a drive away from all the attractions, making your vacation feel complete.
