A-Frame Mountain Retreat on 10+/- Acres — Gated Community, Turnkey & Rental-Ready
Escape to the mountains just minutes from Old Fort, Black Mountain, and I-40. This updated A-frame sits on 10+/- private acres with paved road access and additional building sites for future expansion.
Inside: Two primary suites on the main floor offer easy, single-level living, each opening through French doors onto a large deck with mountain views. The great room features a cozy fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and hardwood floors. Upstairs, a loft-style bedroom is perfect as a guest room, office, or reading retreat. Both bathrooms have been recently updated, with new carpet in the bedrooms and loft.
Bonus Space: The fully remodeled garage doubles as a covered recreation area — great for entertaining, a home gym, or studio, with easy potential to convert to heated living space.
The Community: Located in Gateway Mountain, a 3,000+ acre gated community bordering a 12,000-acre conservancy. Walk to a waterfall park, community lake, and a future state park — plus enjoy trails, weekly Friday lake gatherings (April–October), and high-speed fiber with Starlink backup for easy remote work. What else do you need? Sold turnkey — ideal as a full-time home, weekend getaway, or short-term rental (permitted), just in time for peak Fall leaf season.
