Located at the highest point in The Ridge at Yonahlossee, "Higher Ground" offers exceptional views of Grandfather Mountain, a unique history, and a wonderful location between Boone and Blowing Rock. Originally associated with the Yonahlossee Riding Club for Girls, this distinctive mountain home combines historic character with thoughtful updates. A spacious deck overlooks the iconic Grandfather Mountain profile, with additional seasonal views of surrounding mountains and ski slopes. Beautiful fall foliage adds to the setting, while the property's position at the end of the community provides ample parking, level outdoor spaces, and easy care landscaping. Inside, vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, a substantial stone wood burning fireplace, and natural wood finishes give the home its mountain character. The updated galley kitchen offers an efficient layout, complemented by a separate dining area. The main level includes a spacious primary suite and a second bedroom with a full bath that can be closed off with a pocket door to create a private guest suite. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath. A mudroom, dedicated laundry and pantry area with built in cabinetry, and separate storage room provide practical space for everyday living and outdoor equipment. Less than 15 minutes from both Boone and Blowing Rock, the property is convenient to shopping, dining, skiing, hiking, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Short term rentals are permitted, offering flexibility for a primary residence, second home, or investment property. Optional membership at Yonahlossee Resort and Club provides access to an indoor pool, fitness center, clubhouse, tennis and pickleball facilities, social events, and additional amenities. With its Grandfather Mountain views, distinctive history, and convenient location, "Higher Ground" offers an exceptional opportunity in the High Country.
