Step into history with this incredible opportunity to own a unique piece of Boone's past! This super charming, in-town 1930s stone cottage, topped with a distinctive red tin roof, boasts a fantastic location just a short walk to Downtown Boone and Appalachian State University. Marvel at the gorgeous architectural design featuring striking stone archways and massive chunks of natural quartz embedded within the spectacular stone siding. Delightful outdoor living awaits with a covered front porch, a snug covered back porch, and an open side deck complete with picnic table for outdoor dining and enjoyment. The generous yard also includes a handy storage shed. This special property is on the market for the first time since 1978, offering a rare chance to make it your own! While sold As-Is, this historic gem offers a fantastic canvas for your vision. Thoughtful updates have already been made, including a metal roof installed less than 10 years ago and the replacement of all but two windows with Anderson windows within the last decade, complemented by new storm doors. Step inside the main level to find a comfortable living room flowing into a separate den, complete with a cozy reading nook and convenient built-in bookcase. The focal point is a gorgeous two-sided stone fireplace, warming both the living room and the den. The spacious kitchen provides ample counter space and connects seamlessly to an inviting dining room. A full bath with a linen closet completes the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a convenient half bath with a storage cubby, offering the potential to easily expand into a second full bath by incorporating space from the largest bedroom. This property is truly loaded with potential. Please note the original stone foundation has an area of material breakdown to the left of the crawlspace door. Sitting on a generous 0.4-acre in-town lot, the R1A Zoning opens up exciting possibilities, including the construction of an accessory building for potential income generation, with ample room to the right of the house. A new owner could also explore extending the Frontier Natural Gas mainline to the house, an ideal upgrade for a new HVAC system and a gas fireplace. This incredibly special property, with its fantastic proximity to Downtown Boone and ASU, is truly an awesome opportunity.
