## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to a property where "built to last" isn't just a phrase - it's the foundation philosophy. This full brick rancher sits proudly on three parcels totaling 3.47 acres, offering the kind of space that lets you breathe deeply and live freely in the heart of the North Carolina mountains. Step inside to find three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, all conveniently situated on the main level. No stairs required for daily living - though you'll want to explore the full basement below, where half has already been finished and heated, ready for your creative vision. Think recreation room, home gym, studio, or whatever suits your lifestyle. When it comes to staying comfortable year-round, this home doesn't believe in putting all its eggs in one basket. You'll enjoy heating and cooling through a central system with gas backup, a gas log fireplace for cozy evenings, and a wood-burning fireplace for those who appreciate the authentic crackle and glow. Outside, a covered back porch invites you to savor mountain mornings with coffee in hand. The property also includes a separate workshop with an attached one-car carport - perfect for projects, hobbies, or extra storage. With the Blue Ridge Parkway just minutes away and convenient grocery shopping nearby, you'll enjoy both seclusion and accessibility. Properties with this level of quality construction and acreage don't come along often. Schedule your private showing today and see this one in person.
