About 1620 Buckberry Drive
Wake up every morning to wide-open mountain views—Chimney Top and Rocky Mountains close by, with Black Rock and Whiteside standing tall in the distance. From your private .86-acre hilltop spot, at 3,864 feet up, it feels peaceful and tucked away. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Sapphire, NC, has been both a comfortable getaway and a great vacation rental. The open floor plan makes it easy to relax or entertain. The great room has tall cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, and a big stone, wood-burning fireplace that’s perfect for cool mountain nights. The kitchen is roomy and practical, with a large island, a separate breakfast bar, and plenty of space for cooking and gathering. The primary suite is set apart for privacy, with a bathroom that includes a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and double sinks. Step out onto the screened porch to enjoy the fresh mountain air and long-range views. On the other side of the home, two guest bedrooms share a hall bath and a laundry room—convenient for family, friends, or renters. Upstairs, a loft gives you extra space for an office, TV room, or overflow sleeping area. The fully encapsulated lower level has a workshop area and direct access to the two-car garage. Recent updates include fresh paint, new siding, refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, and brand-new appliances plus a water heater. There’s plenty of parking and easy turnaround space outside, and the home is being sold furnished. Whether you want a reliable rental property or your own mountain retreat, this place offers year-round views, comfort, and privacy—all in one easygoing package.
