Jackson County, North Carolina has a number of subdivisions with houses and cabins well suited for either full time living or as vacation getaways. Sunset Summit is in the Savannah Township of Sylva…about 6 miles south of Dillsboro off of 441 so the location is excellent for either use…pretty much 15 minutes to anywhere in the county or to neighboring Franklin.
Our new listing at 847 Timbuktu for just $143,000 is a sweet cabin situated on two lots giving it a generous amount of property ideal for playing, gardening, pets and entertaining. The front and back porches are both covered, comfortable in sunny or rainy weather with lots of room for rocking chairs, grills and game tables. Nothing is better than having great outdoor living space to spill out into.
The great room makes it a cinch to seat a large number of guests and the exposed kitchen makes it easy for everyone to visit while the cooking is going on. Even though the house is air-conditioned and heated by the heat pump, it’s reassuring to have the wood stove there just in case the power goes off in the winters. The master bedroom, guest bath and laundry are all on the main level. Upstairs in the loft lies the second bedroom and an alcove ideal for additional sleeping quarters.
This cabin is exactly what people picture when they imagine that sweet little cabin in the woods. The sellers have done a great job with interesting but easy to maintain landscaping. They’ve artfully placed large boulders for unique focal points and there is a comfy hanging hammock for the all important naps and contemplation hours plus a freestanding swing for gazing out over the mountain view. The view is available year round but if someone wanted to judiciously thin the trees out a little more, the view could be opened even further.
The Homeowners Association takes great care of the private road that runs through the Sunset Summit development and it’s always comforting to know that the HOA fees are being handled wisely.
For fulltime residents, it is easy to get to the Jackson County Public Schools or the colleges, Western Carolina University or Southwestern Community College. The MedWest Health Care Center is also convenient for peace of mind. For those fulltime OR vacation residents who like to play in one of the greatest outdoor activity meccas in the country, all of the attractions are nearby…the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, rafting or fishing on the Tuckasegee or Nantahala Rivers, boating on Bear Lake, Cedar Cliffs, Lake Fontana or Nantahala Lake, golfing in Waynesville, Franklin, Smoky Mountain Country Club or the brand new Sequoyah Course near Cherokee and hiking just about in any direction.
If you’ve been dreaming about a sweet yet affordable at $143,000 cabin in the woods, this could be the one to settle into. Give us a call and let’s go take a look at 847 Timbuktu in Sunset Summit soon.
