Move-in ready ranch on 2.85 private acres in Morganton — the seller left nothing to worry about. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been improved from the ground up. Inside, brand-new luxury scratch-resistant LVP flooring runs through an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen. The split-bedroom layout gives the primary suite real privacy with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, while the additional bedrooms stay generously sized with ample storage. The real story is peace of mind. Within the last two years the home received a full renovation — all new plumbing, electrical, water line from the meter to the house, roof, HVAC, hot water heater, and insulation — all completed with permits. The current owner kept going: a new crawl space vapor barrier, new sump pump, and additional drainage, so moisture concerns are off the table. Outside, a fully fenced backyard, new concrete, a deck-and-patio combo, and fresh hardscaping create an entertaining setup that's done and waiting. The workshop shed received a new roof, new insulation, and new doors. All of this sits on 2.85 wooded acres with a peaceful creek and true privacy, minutes from downtown Morganton and zoned for Salem Elementary, Liberty Middle, and Patton High. All appliances convey. Please note the fireplace is decorative and currently non-functional. SHOWINGS START WED 7/29 :)

Perched on 2.29 peaceful acres just two minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Jonas Ridge snow tubing park, this impeccably maintained property offers the perfect balance of mountain serenity and accessibility. Located less than 10 minutes from Linville Falls, 11 miles from Grandfather Mountain, and 13 miles from Sugar Mountain Ski Resort, this location is an absolute haven for year-round outdoor recreation. The acreage features a gentle mix of open lawn and mature woods with cleared paths for meandering, offering a low-maintenance lifestyle and plenty of space for gardening and yard games. Buyers have the option to expand their footprint by parceling out a section of the land to build an additional home or ADU if desired. Inside, the 2,674-square-foot layout is thoughtfully designed for single-floor living. Walking past the established landscaping and through the front door, you enter a chef’s dream kitchen, outfitted with a five-burner gas stove, updated appliances, leathered granite countertops, and a sun-drenched eat-in dining nook. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a spacious living room anchored by a gas log fireplace. The living room opens to a partially covered back deck that showcases seasonal mountain views, which could easily be expanded with selective tree work. The primary bedroom suite sits separately to the right of the living area, easily accommodating a king-sized bed and featuring a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub. Two additional generously sized guest bedrooms and a second full bathroom sit on the opposite side of the home.

The lower level also provides access to a spacious two-car garage and fenced-in yard for the pups. The sellers have invested heavily in capital improvements, leaving nothing for the next owner to do but move in. Major updates include a new roof and gutters in 2020, new windows in 2023/24, and a comprehensive mini-split system installed throughout the home in 2024. Modern cosmetic updates round out the value, including new light fixtures, ceiling fans, cabinet hardware, faucets, and a custom barn door in the primary suite. The pool table and rec room fridge both convey. Additional furnishings are negotiable, making this an even more turnkey opportunity to set down roots in a gorgeous pocket of the High Country.
