Welcome to Hale Hoku, or "Cabin in the Stars," a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath log home tucked away among the trees in beautiful Blowing Rock. Offering 1,258 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this inviting mountain retreat combines charming character, modern conveniences, and the peaceful setting that makes life in the High Country so special. From the moment you arrive, the level driveway provides easy access and a welcoming approach to the home. The covered front porch, complete with a classic porch swing, and established landscaping offers a comforting sight. Inside, rich wood finishes, exposed beams, and a dramatic vaulted great room with tall windows and skylights fill the home with natural light, while showcasing its authentic mountain charm. The updated kitchen features beautiful leathered granite countertops, adding a touch of understated elegance that complements the home's natural finishes. Outdoor living is part of the appeal, whether you're enjoying your morning coffee on the front porch swing, reading a book or watching the game on the expansive covered back porch, or gathering with family and friends around the fire pit area beneath the mountain sky. Mature hardwoods, rhododendron, and natural landscaping provide a wonderful sense of privacy and an ever-changing backdrop throughout the seasons. For those who love an adventure, the neighborhood offers direct access to a scenic 7-mile hiking trail around Price Lake and surrounding National Park lands (see map in the photos), putting miles of natural beauty and outdoor adventure practically at your doorstep. Thoughtful updates offer added comfort and convenience, including a new roof in 2023 and a Tesla charger/Powerwall system. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or investment property (short-term rentals are allowed), Hale Hoku offers a wonderful combination of comfort, character, and access to the outdoors. From evenings around the fire pit to peaceful mornings on the one of the covered porches, and hiking adventures just around the corner, this special property captures the simple pleasures of mountain living in Blowing Rock. Offered furnished, with a few exclusions.
