One level living is also an option as the Primary Bedroom, laundry room, and parking are all on the main level. A gorgeous stone fireplace warms the living room and a wall of windows and full glass doors make the incredible views of Table Rock, Brown Mountain, and Grandfather Mountain feel so close you can touch them.
