143 Redbird Drive

Step out on the long front porch at 143 Redbird and the trees are the first thing you’ll notice. Hardwoods and pines wrap the lot on every side, and in the fall they turn red and gold. That same view fills the great room through tall triangle windows set high in a vaulted wood ceiling. The living area, dining space, and kitchen all share one big room, so whoever’s cooking isn’t stuck around a corner. Wide plank pine floors run through the main level. A gas stove sits against the wall for cold nights. The kitchen has custom wood cabinets, a gas range with five burners and a griddle, a side by side fridge with water and ice in the door, and a built in microwave. Track lights hang from the beams under the loft. There are 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths (1 in the unfinished basement). One bath has a tiled zero entry shower with a long floor drain, a grab bar, and a handheld sprayer, plus an antique washstand vanity with a hammered copper sink. The stackable washer and dryer in that bath conveys. The other bath has a tub and shower combo and a vessel sink. Upstairs, the loft stretches along the roofline with a window at the far end, a ceiling fan, and space for extra beds. The lower level is unfinished, with block walls, a coated floor, French doors, framing already up, and a laundry area wired for a washer and dryer. The tankless water heater is down there too. Finish it as a den or game room, or keep it for storage. There is a third bathroom framed in, but not completed. Outside, you’ve got a green metal roof, a covered front porch with swing hooks, a big deck off the back door, a covered stone patio under the deck, a storage shed, and a gravel drive with room to park. Riverbend at Lake Lure is a gated community with two private lakes, a sandy beach, a picnic pavilion, a kayak and canoe launch, walking trails, and access to the Broad River. Lake Lure and Chimney Rock are a short drive away. Short term rentals are allowed in Riverbend, subject to HOA rules. Furnishings are available by separate agreement.
