Enjoying the views from inside and out

2009-08-25T16:06:00.000-07:00

We watched the cows next door while we ate dinner in the kitchen. After dinner sat outside on the back deck off the kitchen and watched a menagerie of animals from wild turkeys to cows, box turtle, all kinds of birds, groundhog passing by - it's an active evening. The best part of living here is being able to enjoy nature from the views inside and outside the house.

Favorite room in the house in summer

What's better than having breakfast looking outside and seeing green everywhere, watching the birds feeding on the feeders, while the sun streams in and light surrounds you. The kitchen is where we "hang out" with our friends, chatting, cooking, eating, and drinking. With a deck off the sliding glass door there is space outside to barbecue and entertain right off the kitchen. The kitchen is large enough to eat in, have an island with a cook top, and still have plenty of space to get around. There is a low desk like counter where "command center" is stationed - computers, paperwork, bills paid all from the work/desk counter top which accommodates two. The kitchen is definitely the nucleus of the home.

Porch Life

We live on our porch...it is a great place to sit and appreciate the beauty around us. We have a table and chairs on the porch and six seats where we sit many a night with our neighbors, having a drink, chatting, and enjoying the view. At night we light the torches and just there on the porch listening to the water in the creek/stream. Last night we went out and looked at the stars. In the morning, we always take time especially on the weekends to sit on the porch and just "be" with all the beauty around us.

Our neighbors are noisy! Just kidding....but truly these are the neighbor's cows at our fence line and they are very friendly.

Sunny day in the mountains, Carolina blue sky and a few billowy clouds.....wild turkeys running around the yard, cows sitting by fencing on the neighbors farm....life in the country - isn't it grand!

Saturday in the mountains, started out misty and rainy, but lush green everywhere.... then a hot summer sunny dry day. What is better than summer in the mountains - not too hot, not humid and cool in the evenings. Love it!

Friday morning in the mountains, a little mist, light rain, and glorious lush greenery everywhere. I didn't know there were so many shades of green. It is beautiful.

My Beautiful Mountain Paradise

Come sit on the front porch, listen to the trout stream and enjoy the quiet, peaceful mountainous country setting – come and just “be” at HOME.
Mountain Paradise Retreat – situated on 10+ acres on the quiet Prices Creek section of quaint Burnsville, in Yancey County, just 30 minutes from Asheville this 2500+ sq. ft. home has much to offer. With 4 BR/2.5 BA of spacious living with extra large rooms there is plenty of space for family and friends. The spacious airy kitchen is a great place to gather or enjoy the extra large living room with fireplace on a cool winter’s night. If that isn’t enough, there is more room to spread out in the considerable sized family room on the second floor. There is a Master Bedroom on main with his and her walk in closets, and a large Jacuzzi tub to relax and unwind.
Outside the house, there is a long front porch the length of the house to enjoy, a deck off the kitchen with a small fenced in area in the backyard, a two story 16’ x 16’ workshop, and a large 18’ x 31’ metal out building for equipment. There are pastures (come bring your horses), lawn big enough to enjoy a rowdy game of football or badminton, woods to explore, streams to catch trout or craw daddies, neighboring cows, and wild life to watch.
Come take a look for yourself and see why this is a place to call HOME!
