This house is situated in a beautiful area of the North Carolina mountains! I love that detached deck that overlooks the Elk River. The house was built in 1949. It is located on 8.25 acres in Elk Park, North Carolina. The house features a small covered porch, wood floors, bead board, claw foot tub and unique tile flooring in bathroom. The home is situated up above the Elk River. There is a detached deck that overlooks the river and was originally going to be a bunk house. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and 931 square feet. $315,000

The main floor offers 1 bedroom and 1 full bath featuring a vintage clawfoot tub and mosaic tile flooring, plus an additional small room great for an office, library, or extra sleeping space. Upstairs you’ll find 3 bedrooms and a half bath that do not meet ANSI height requirements for HLA but provide plenty of extra room. Character abounds with beadboard, hardwood floors, and craftsman-style molding throughout. This home has only been owned by two other families, a rare find in today’s market. A large detached deck overlooks the Elk River and was built with the intention of becoming a bunkhouse—ready for your finishing touch.
