The Cottage at Old Boone – NEW CONSTRUCTION near Downtown Blowing Rock! Just a short golf cart ride to the Blowing Rock Country Club and Golf Course, this home is situated in a quiet and private setting offering a peaceful location yet close Main Street and the club. Property controls viewshed with sunsets and long range Grandfather Mountain view in the background! This brand new 2026 build brings together a bright and airy, contemporary design and tasteful mountain touches to offer a gorgeous home in a great location! Year-round access on easy-to-travel roads makes this property suitable as a full time residence or perfect for a mountain getaway that’s close to shopping, dining, ski slopes, and all the nearby National Parks and trails off the Blue Ridge Parkway. With 3BR 3.5BA, living spaces are centered around an open kitchen (with stainless steel Thermador appliances) and great room, with dual sided stone fireplace that can also be enjoyed from the adjacent back deck! A private Primary Suite on the walk in level offers a luxurious bath with soaking tub and separate tiled shower while two more bedroom bathroom suites and a 2nd living room with wet-bar are located upstairs. A formal dining (with potential to be a great office), walk-in pantry, main level half bath, laundry on BOTH floors, detached 2 car garage, covered front entry, and lower golf cart storage provide ample options for layout and use. No detail was spared in construction: solid oak wood glass doors at garage and entry, prewired for EV charger, epoxied garage floor with drains and smart board exterior siding used inside for ability to wash vehicles (plus heater with thermostat), custom gas lanterns by St. James Lighting Company, keyless entry. Fireplace mantels and floating wood shelves over main level bar were reclaimed from historic Green Park Inn (over 150 years old!)! Trex decking, exposed beams, Kohler and Kingston Brass faucets, water purification system at kitchen sink, heated bathroom floors, high and low bedroom tv mount options (for hidden wiring), vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, Rockwool interior wall insulation for noise reduction, engineered wood floors. 3 HVAC zones with dehumidification, humidification, and air purification systems installed. Weather-sealed glass doors on exterior fireplace, natural/real stone on exterior, GAF Presidential series shake roof. Pre-wired for full house generator. THE LIST GOES ON AND ON!
