A versatile mountain retreat with built-in income potential awaits in the gated Mount Soma community. This distinctive three-level cottage is surrounded by serene natural beauty and offers mountain views along with flexible living arrangements ideal for full-time residence, vacation use, or rental income.
Designed to maximize privacy and functionality, each level features its own living space. The upper level includes a bright, open layout with a full kitchen, living and dining area, a private deck, and a bedroom with an ensuite bath—perfect for enjoying the peaceful setting. The main level offers a comfortable bonus room with ensuite bath, kitchenette, and its own living and dining area, plus access to a separate deck. The lower level provides a fully independent suite with exterior access, complete with a bedroom, full bath, and kitchen/living/dining space.
Currently part of Mount Soma’s short-term rental program, where each level is rented individually (buyer to verify), this property presents strong income-producing potential. Live in the upper levels while renting the lower, or continue the existing rental setup for maximum return.
Mini-split systems paired with propane wall heaters ensure year-round comfort. Residents of Mount Soma enjoy access to peaceful walking trails and tranquil community spaces, all within about 15 minutes of I-40 and about 30 minutes to Waynesville. This is a rare opportunity to own a flexible, income-generating mountain property in a truly peaceful setting.
