Experience the rare beauty of true streamfront mountain living in this charming home located in the Holly Forest community of Sapphire Valley, NC. This property is bordered by TWO bold mountain streams, creating a peaceful and private setting that is almost impossible to find at this price point. Enjoy the soothing sound of flowing water from nearly every angle-whether relaxing on the expansive decks, opening the windows in the primary suite, or sipping your morning coffee on the private Juliet balcony. The home sits on nearly one acre of private, wooded land, and the adjacent property is part of Camp Merrie-Woode's permanently protected preserve, ensuring forever privacy, no future construction, and uninterrupted views of pristine forestland. This is one of the most serene and protected natural settings in all of Sapphire Valley. Inside, the home offers 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, a primary suite on the main level, a jetted tub, solid wood doors, hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, and a cozy wood-burning stove-perfect for mountain evenings. The kitchen features granite countertops, and the home includes bonus living areas on all three levels, including a loft and a dedicated home office ideal for remote work or creative space. Outdoor living is exceptional here: enjoy long-range mountain views, double stream frontage, two expansive decks, low-maintenance landscaping, a stone pathway, and a fenced yard ideal for pets. The year-round sound of water, cool mountain breezes, and unrivaled privacy create a true mountain sanctuary. A private entry to the lower-level in-law suite-complete with its own living area, bedroom suite, walk-in closet, and full bath-offers flexible space for guests or multigenerational living. This home would make a fantastic vacation rental as well as a full-time residence. This Sapphire Valley home is the perfect choice for buyers seeking waterfront features, protected land, privacy, outdoor living, and a peaceful mountain setting.
