Burnette Cove is the kind of place people go looking for and rarely find on the market. A handful of houses on a quiet road, pasture and hardwood, and the Hilltop house is a true slice of NC mountain living. Up a private drive above Burnette Cove, where the ridgelines stack up in front of you, the house is practically new. The setting is not; open pasture, a weathered barn below, a cove people have farmed since the fifties. Inside this 3/2 single level "Hilltop" home above Canton, the kitchen, dining and living run together as one room around a big island, with a fireplace and built-ins at the far end. The primary suite takes its own end of the house: walk-in closet, double vanity, glass walk-in shower in this large bathroom. Two more bedrooms, a full bath with a tub and a real laundry room at the other end. Laminate floors, crown molding, heat pump and central air, all on one level with no stairs anywhere. Canton and Waynesville are both a short drive for groceries, the hospital, dinner out. Head the other direction, up the East Fork valley, and US 276 carries you into Pisgah National Forest, the Big East Fork trailhead, the Forest Heritage Scenic Byway, waterfalls and on up to the Blue Ridge Parkway. No HOA. No city taxes. Starlink installed. Served by a natural spring now, with a shared well under construction under a recorded easement. Ask agent for status. This open design off-frame modular is on a permanent foundation that finances like any site built home. Seller will contribute $9,000 toward closing costs or a rate buydown with a full-price offer. The adjacent barn and additional acreage are available for purchase separately, subject to survey, totaling aprox. 1.14 acres.

There are creekside properties and then there are places where the creek becomes part of the experience of the home. Welcome to 16 Wits End Way, a charming mountain cabin set directly along Hemphill Creek, where the rushing water provides an incredible natural soundtrack from morning to night. This is an especially lively stretch of Hemphill Creek, with the unmistakable sound of roaring mountain water that can be enjoyed from the porch and outdoor sitting areas and even from inside the cabin when the windows are open. Steps lead down toward the creek to a dedicated viewing deck, creating a wonderful place to sit, unwind and experience the water up close. And while the creek is one of the property's defining features, the home sits comfortably above it. The property is located outside both the 100-year and 500-year floodplains and is in Zone One. The home was not affected by flooding during Hurricane Helene. The cabin itself is filled with character and has benefited from numerous updates. The interior has been remodeled, the flooring has been redone, and a recently upgraded metal roof adds another important improvement. Outside, multiple sitting areas invite you to enjoy the wooded mountain setting, while the fire pit offers a natural gathering place for cool Western North Carolina evenings, all accompanied by the sound of Hemphill Creek nearby. One distinctive characteristic of the cabin is its ceiling height, which varies throughout the home and is approximately 6'10" in many areas. Under Canopy MLS heated living area (HLA) reporting standards and the North Carolina Real Estate Commission’s Residential Square Footage Guidelines, finished living area generally must have a ceiling height of at least 7 feet to qualify as HLA, subject to limited exceptions for certain beams, ducts, and sloped-ceiling areas. Because many of the cabin’s ceilings are below the 7-foot standard, those portions of the finished interior do not qualify for inclusion in the reported heated living area. Buyers are encouraged to review the measurements and square-footage information carefully for the distinction between reported HLA and other finished space. Updated yet wonderfully rustic, this is a property that is difficult to capture in photographs alone. It's about sitting outside by the fire, walking down to the creek deck, opening the windows and hearing rushing water fill the cabin. For buyers looking for an authentic Waynesville mountain retreat with the sights and sounds of Hemphill Creek right outside the door, 16 Wits End Way offers a setting that truly stands apart.
