Community: Morganton in Burke County
Tucked away on 2.39 wooded acres between Morganton and Lenoir, this private cabin-style home gives you the quiet setting people look for without feeling too far from town. A private gravel driveway leads you back to the home, where the wrap around front and back porches create an easy places to slow down, enjoy the trees, and take in the setting around you. Inside, the two-story great room is the heart of the home, with a floor-to-ceiling rock-faced fireplace and a large window wall that brings in natural light and views of the wooded surroundings. The interior was completely remodeled in 2023, giving the home a move-in ready feel while still keeping the character you want in a cabin-style setting. The kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, with a layout that connects well to the main living space. The layout gives everyone their own space, with two generously sized bedrooms on the main floor, each with a walk-in closet and private full bathroom. A half bath, dedicated laundry room, and pantry round out the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite feels tucked away from the rest of the home with a large walk-in closet, vanity room, and a bathroom with a garden tub and separate shower. There’s also a flex room upstairs, giving you space for an office, creative room, or a quiet place to unwind. The basement includes a true two-car garage, adding practical storage and parking to a home that works well as a full-time residence, second home, or private mountain-style retreat. A large detached building adds even more flexibility for storage, equipment, hobbies, or workspace. If you’ve been looking for privacy, updated interiors, and a setting that feels tucked away while still offering easy access to Morganton and Lenoir, this one is worth a look.
