This is a 4 bedroom, 4 bath home of generous size and unique features nestled away on 3.39 acres of gently rolling woods in one the most desirable neighborhoods in the region. Though mere minutes from Columbus and Tryon, it has a feeling of bucolic serenity. Hardwood floors are found throughout, complimented by custom tile in the kitchen, solarium and also in one suite. The entrance leads to a foyer with two large guest closets, off which is a newly redecorated, formal dining room. The separate, formal living room is spacious with its own black, marble hearthed fireplace and bay window. Off the dining room is an eat-in country kitchen which features a wood burning, brick fireplace (with gas log option), a wet bar and ample built-ins. In this wing is a guest room/study with vaulted ceilings and skylights, a full bath especially designed for the infirm, along with the laundry room. The master suite features four closets, a dressing area with skylight and a huge sitting room also with vaulted ceilings and skylights. The sitting room has its own double set of French doors, one leading to the master bedroom, the other to a recently refurbished deck and patio. This deck connects to the heated solarium with double paned sliding doors - a beautiful respite for winding down and absorbing the sounds of the evening. In the same wing, there are two other bedrooms/offices each with its own private, full bath. One office has been completely refinished. A large 2 car garage with built-in tool cubby connects to the laundry room. Down stairs there is another 800 sf of newly painted, finished space for a game room featuring several closets plus 1200 sf of unfinished space for workshop or storage. Upgrades include many new plumbing features, recently cleared land, a new gravel walkway surrounding the house. The house is part full brick, part clapboard. There is also a newly restored wraparound back deck and a covered front porch. A gracious circular drive is enhanced by carriage lights. Within the drive is a circular, stone stairway leading to a sitting area with a reflecting pool and fountain. Included are: double oven, range, refrigerator, dishwasher, some window dressings.

The house is located in the central Blue Ridge foothills, an area known for its mild climate due to the "Thermal Belt." Warm air settles and moderates the temperatures cooler in summer and warmer in winter. This phenomenon allows for outdoor activities such as the equestrian pursuits for which nearby Tryon is renowned, including steeplechase, fox hunting and dressage.

Gracious country living minutes from I-26 or I-74. 45 min to Asheville, hour and a half to Charlotte, one hour to Greenville, SC.
