Long-Range Mountain Views with Flexible Living and Proven Rental Appeal Set on 1.8 acres in the established Walnut Creek community, this thoughtfully maintained 1.5-story home with a fully finished basement offers convenient main-level living and expansive long-range south-easterly views across open farmland and layered mountain ridges, with a distant glimpse toward the Blue Ridge Parkway near the Saunook Overlook. Built in 2004 and enhanced with a fully finished lower level in 2024, the home provides exceptional flexibility for full-time living, visiting family, or rental use in a neighborhood where short-term rentals are permitted. The main level includes all essential living spaces, including the primary suite, kitchen, great room, and laundry. Arrival is welcoming and practical, with a level gravel driveway and ample parking for up to six vehicles, leading to main-level entry with just two steps and a covered front porch. Inside, natural light fills the great room through a dramatic window wall beneath vaulted ceilings, showcasing the surrounding mountain landscape. Gleaming hardwood floors extend through the great room, dining area, and kitchen, where quartz countertops and a custom-designed island with breakfast bar seating create both beauty and function. The island features a built-in pop-up mixer lift and dedicated spice drawer, reflecting thoughtful craftsmanship. A wood-burning stone fireplace anchors the open floor plan and enhances the inviting atmosphere. The main level is designed with a split bedroom plan and includes three bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite offers direct access to the deck and included hot tub, along with an ensuite bath featuring radiant heated floors, whirlpool tub, and separate shower. A conveniently located laundry room completes the main level. The upper loft provides additional flexible space suitable for guests, office use, or quiet retreat. The fully finished lower level, completed in 2024, offers a private apartment-style layout with both interior and exterior entrances, including its own kitchenette, bedroom, full bath, laundry area, large pantry, cedar closet, decorative electric fireplace, and approximately 300 square feet of additional unheated storage. This level is currently configured to accommodate guests or renters independently, while also allowing the home to function as a single cohesive residence. The property has a strong and proven short-term rental history from 2005 through 2017, during which the owners maintained a consistent 5-star rating with many repeat guests. While the home has served as the owners’ full-time residence in recent years, it remains well suited for short-term rental use, either as a complete home or with the lower level operating independently. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a spacious deck positioned to enjoy the peaceful mountain setting and expansive views. The detached single-car garage adds additional storage and convenience. The home is served by private well and septic (permitted for four bedrooms), and includes a whole-house water filtration system, basement humidifier, ceiling fans throughout, satellite internet with high-speed bandwidth, and a portable generator. The seller is offering a one-year home warranty credit for buyer peace of mind. Located approximately 15 minutes from downtown Waynesville, grocery stores, and daily conveniences, the property offers year-round access in a quiet neighborhood of both seasonal and full-time residents. Walnut Creek maintains architectural standards and road quality through two HOAs, supporting the integrity and long-term value of the community.
