Tucked into a peaceful cul-de-sac on more than an acre at 3,600 ft. elevation, this meticulously maintained Sapphire Valley home offers inviting spaces inside and out. Custom-built for its original owners by one of the area’s leading builders, the mostly furnished home features an open floor plan and 12-inch-wide wood plank floors throughout. The kitchen includes an Elmira dual-fuel stove, a newer refrigerator, rounded-edge countertops, a farmhouse sink, an under-counter microwave, and under-cabinet lighting. A laundry room just off the kitchen adds to the convenience of one-level living. The primary suite features a custom closet system and a tiled bathroom with a soaking tub and electric radiant floor heating. On the opposite side of the home, two spacious guest bedrooms share a bathroom. The screened back porch is a highlight, with a stone fireplace and warm lighting that make it inviting from afternoon into evening. It overlooks more than 11 acres of land protected by a conservation easement, providing a peaceful backdrop. The front porch offers another place to enjoy the landscaped yard, locust fence, and rock-walled gardens. A ramp offers easier access to the home, and the detached two-car garage includes overhead storage. A whole home generator offers additional convenience and peace of mind. Sapphire Valley dining is close by, with the shops and restaurants of Cashiers just a few miles away. Ownership also includes access to Sapphire Valley amenities, including golf, tennis, indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness center, and more.
