Between a babbling creek and a wooded backdrop, this peaceful Yancey County retreat offers both comfort and income potential. With 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a flexible bonus room the current owner used as their primary suite, this home offers space to spread out and settle in. Interior features include hardwood floors, built-in shelving, glass shower doors, and an instant-on water heater. Enjoy the sounds of Banks Creek from your covered porch or lounge on the brand-new Trex side deck—complete with hot tub and outdoor movie projector for the ultimate mountain getaway experience. This home was a highly rated short-term rental before becoming a primary residence, and STRs are allowed here—making it a great option for full-time living, part-time escape, or a turn-key rental investment. Other recent updates include luxury vinyl plank in the primary bedroom, new toilets, and more. Located on the west side of Yancey County, it’s an easy, scenic drive to both Burnsville and Asheville.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
