The View
***Great Holiday Spot - Road Access - No Storm Damage. The Town of Blowing Rock is Open and Thriving!***
The View is true to it's name, offering the gorgeous, long distance, layered mountain vistas that make the mountains of NC a popular tourist destination. The home is the perfect spot for the whole family to gather and enjoy rural mountain living in a casual environment. The home sits on 14 acres in a semi-remote setting, accessed by a long and narrow mountian driveway that will require a high clearance vehicle for most travelers. You will definitely know you are adventuring in the mountains. This comfortable, no-frills home offers privacy and room to explore, as well as access to the shopping and restaurants of downtown Blowing Rock, a 15 minute drive away. Recently, the owners have completed tree removal to keep the View beautiful, and have added new living room furniture (table, sofa, recliner) for your comfort.
When you enter the front door, view the mountains through the ceiling to floor glass windows of the great room, where you can enjoy Sattelite TV, Wi-fi, or a game of pool. Walk out onto the deck for an evening beverage and soak in the mountain air or enjoy your first night in the sparkling four man hot tub with a view. Hot tub towels provided. Enjoy the evening by the firepit with chairs and a picnic table.
The kitchen is fully equipped with standard range, oven, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, cookware, dishes, glassware, and utensils for whipping up a quick snack or cooking and serving a full course meal. The appliances are not brand new, but are full size and adequate to serve all your basic cooking needs. Breakfast is a snap with all the necessary small appliances on hand, including blender, toaster, and drip coffee maker. The dining table in the great room seats up to 10, plus there is bar stool seating for an additional four at the kitchen bar.
The main level offers a King Master Suite with sitting area and deck access, television, closets, night stands, dresser and comfortable bedding. The ensuite bath includes a jetted tub, glass block shower with tile, and his and her sinks. There is a second King bedroom, with a hallway bath, also on the main level, where your guests or parents will feel equally at home with their own television, dresser, closet, night stand and comfy bedding.
The upstairs includes one Bunk Room with a full bed and bunk beds, plus a trundle under the bunk, and also a Queen bedroom, each with a moderately sized ensuite bath with shower/tub combination. Just outside these upper level bedrooms is a Foosball table, and a sitting area with bookshelves, where you can spend some quiet time reading or enjoying the view over the balcony. Every bedroom has it's own television. A sofa bed adds sleeping space for an additional child or two.
Guests who stay longer are sure to appreciate the laundry room with full-sized washer and dryer, the many closets for storage, and the spaciousness of the house.
It bears repeating that Mountain views of this kind are pretty hard to find without mountain driving and the road to this house is no exception. The road is a narrow, gravel, mountain road, with some drop offs, pot holes, and potentially ruts after a rain. However, the road is not unduly steep. A 4 wheel drive vehicle with some clearance is recommended year-round to navigate ruts and potholes created when there is inclement weather and is definitely required from November through March to handle any frost, ice or snow. Low clearance vehicles are not advised at any time of year.
Tv and WiFi by Huges Net at 25 mbps. As with many of our mountain locations, WiFi Service is limited and does not support streaming/movies/gaming activities.
Absolutely no more than 12 guests. No "events" or parties allowed at this location. Outdoor cameras at entry, pointed away from private areas.
