ALL OFFERS DUE MONDAY 3/16 by NOON. Tucked into the mountains of Sylva, this charming cabin retreat is as rare as it is special — and the investment opportunity is equally compelling. No community rental restrictions mean you can operate short-term rentals freely, making this an outstanding income-producing property from day one. A gated community provides peace of mind.
Or live here full time and enjoy the change of seasons!
Each June, the property comes alive with Blue Ghost fireflies — a phenomenon found in only a handful of locations worldwide. These ethereal, blue-glowing insects draw visitors from across the country and create a truly unforgettable experience.
The cabin itself delivers everything buyers and guests want in a Western North Carolina mountain retreat. Warm solid wood floors, skylights, and a flexible Murphy bed in the second bedroom create a bright, functional interior. The showstopper is the 400 sq ft wraparound porch with layered winter mountain views — perfect for morning coffee or evening stargazing. A classic fire pit with a flat yard, rounds out the outdoor living experience.
This property is truly move-in and rental-ready. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with custom butcher block countertops, all new appliances, a new sink, and added shelving. The bathroom has been updated, and the laundry room features new walls, ceiling, and custom shelving. Infrastructure upgrades include a new pressure pump, significant under-house plumbing improvements with full pipe insulation, and a bear-proof outdoor trash container — a practical and appreciated touch in this mountain setting.
Whether your buyer is seeking a turnkey STR investment, a second home, or a full-time mountain escape — this property delivers privacy, charm, and income potential in one of WNC's most beloved communities.
