Solid Brick Ranch with Abundant Garage Space near the Blue Ridge Parkway!!! Less than 1/4 mile off the Blue Ridge Parkway, this well-built brick ranch offers convenience, functionality, and tons of garage space! In addition to the attached 2-car garage, there are two separate detached 2-car garages--providing a total of 6 garage bays. One features epoxy flooring for a clean, finished look, while another is suitable for workshop space. The home sits elevated off the road with year-round access on a state-maintained paved road. Entry into the main level is easy, with virtually no steps. Inside, the kitchen opens to the dining area and formal living room with a propane fireplace. The main level includes 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a half bath off one of the bedrooms. Recent updates include a new roof (2022) and a newer electric boiler, ensuring efficient comfort year-round. Additional propane wall heaters and an ETS (electric thermal storage) unit provide supplemental heat, especially in the finished basement.The lower level offers excellent potential for a mother-in-law suite or apartment, complete with a full kitchen, laundry room, full bath, and two additional rooms that can function as bedrooms (non-conforming, as they lack egress). Conveniently located just 15 minutes to downtown West Jefferson and less than 30 minutes to Wilkesboro, this property combines mountain living with easy commuting.
