153 Tall Oaks Drive

The "WOW" factor is high with this beautiful Maggie Valley log cabin at 4,500 ft! CURRENTLY USED AS A 4 BEDROOM HOUSE AND SLEEPS 8 (septic permit is 3 bedrooms). The ultimate vacation rental/mountain retreat/2nd home/retirement home, with a floor plan that works for several different types of buyers. Might as well start with the views and privacy. Enjoy 16-mile unobstructed mountain views with ZERO other houses in sight from the deck or even across the surrounding mountains. It's all easy to enjoy from 773 sq ft of open deck with hot tub, plus a wraparound covered front porch. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't check out the virtual tour with drone shots. These views and this setting are the real deal! There's also a well-placed firepit and horseshoe pit, but this paradise ain't a one trick pony...this is the signature mountain log home that many dream of when they think of Maggie Valley. Impeccably maintained and a successful vacation rental for years, everything is bright, sparkly and neat as a pin. Even better, all furniture AND the deck hot tub are included, allowing you to keep the rental income flowing or simply enjoy it all for yourself with minimal move-in drama. This is a 3-level home with all levels above grade and no basement area, providing easy, level access into the house along with a large, level driveway that can easily handle 4+ cars. The main-level living/dining/kitchen area flows nicely with easy access to both the covered porch and open deck, while a gas-log fireplace keeps things cozy when the weather turns cooler. The spacious main-level primary suite includes an ensuite bath with jetted garden tub. Upstairs you'll find a nicely laid-out 2-bedroom/1-bath area providing the perfect getaway for kids or guests, with separation from the primary suite that's both simple and practical. The lower-level flex space currently functions as the home's 4th bedroom but could instead serve as an office, den or TV room. There's also a rec room with a second gas-log fireplace, ping-pong table (yep, it's included!) and built-in bar area. Also on the lower level is a 193 sq ft heated/finished storage area that's perfect for tools and lawn equipment and currently serves as the "owner's closet" for the vacation rental. The location is convenient to both Maggie Valley and Cherokee/Harrah's Casino—only 1 mile off Soco Rd and less than 5 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway—with plentiful wildlife including elk, bears and deer without even leaving your own driveway. Painstakingly cared for inside and out and with the furniture included, this is truly a turnkey opportunity for a vacation rental, vacation home or primary residence. Come see why this one really is different!
