### Agent Description
Stunning panoramic Blue Valley Views! This beautiful home features easterly sunrise views from the edge of the Blue Valley with vistas that stretch from the NC mountains all the way into South Carolina and Georgia. This four bedroom, three and one half bath residence is perfectly positioned just minutes from Highlands, Scaly Mountain and Dillard, GA. Expansive windows and glass doors capture breathtaking, long-range, layered mountain views. With its southeastern exposure, the home is filled with a warm morning light. The main level is designed for effortless living and entertaining, featuring an open great room and dining area. The chef's kitchen flows seamlessly into adjacent gathering spaces, creating an inviting environment for hosting or quiet evenings at home. The primary suite on the main level is spacious and features an expansive bathroom. You are greeted at the lower level with an entrance foyer designed for gathering, with a generous family room, two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom and a bonus room that could be used as an office or playroom. There are two covered decks with ample space for entertaining and enjoying the beautiful evening views. Enjoy the hot tub located on the upper deck. A two-car garage adds everyday functionality with a separate guest apartment above.

Endless residential and business opportunities abound for this combined, highly visible property location. One of the last large tracts with beautiful views for your retail, restaurant or hotel.
