Serendipity

Welcome to Serendipity!

Serendipity is a spectacular 4 Bedroom, 4 Bathroom upscale mountain home a half-mile off of the Blue Ridge Parkway, less than 5 miles to downtown Blowing Rock, 6 miles to Appalachian Ski Mountain, and 7 miles to Boone.

Shopping, Restaurants, Horseback Riding, Gem Mining, Sight-seeing, Snow Skiing/Snow Boarding/Ice Skating/Snow Tubing/Sledding, and other family-friendly activities are all within minutes of this conveniently-located vacation home. Hiking, Walking, and Riding trails abound, some within a mile or two of Serendipity, including the well-known Mountains to Sea Trail. Numerous lakes and rivers are nearby as well. Enjoy its serene setting in an established mountain community that is central and convenient to Blowing Rock, Boone, and all the High Country has to offer.

The easy approach to Serendipity is all paved roads, and a paved driveway leads you to the house. For those with electric vehicles, take advantage of one of the very few area homes with an EV charger. The charger is a level 2 Charger with a J1772 charging handle. It will charge at about 23 Amps. A Tesla will need an adapter, but all other EVs do not. It will charge all of them. 

Entry through the lower level exterior door closest to the parking area makes initial access convenient, however, there are exterior doors on the main level into the Dining area and the Great Room. The main level features a huge Great Room, anchored by a stacked stone gas log fireplace and seating area that stretches out and around, offering numerous entertaining areas. It is a unique, expansive Great Room with wonderful views.

A galley-style Kitchen is equipped to prepare and serve meals to a packed house. Across from the Kitchen is a convenient coffee bar with a small fridge and more counter space for buffet-style meals or setting up a beverage station, etc. The banquet-style dining table in the dining area can seat up to ten guests, plus a four-seat table in the great room for overflow dining. Outside the Dining Room is an outdoor deck with a gas grill and an outdoor dining table for six. More outdoor seating on the numerous decks can accommodate more outdoor dining as needed. Also accessible from the main level is the big hot tub, from which guests can enjoy sunny days, starry nights, and those priceless mountain views.

The main level boasts two bedroom suites with King beds, HDTVs, and full ensuite bathrooms. These two suites have private covered decks with outdoor seating and views.

Upstairs is the Master Suite with a King bed, amazing views, a private rooftop Juliette deck with comfy lounging furniture, an ensuite master bathroom, and HDTV. In addition, there is a generous loft with comfortable furniture, a Twin day bed, and a Twin trundle bed.

The lower level features a fun game room with a shuffleboard table and a tabletop MultiCade with dozens of fun arcade games. There is a large wall-mounted HD Smart TV in the game room for watching ballgames or hooking up gaming consoles. The lower level also offers the fourth bedroom suite with two Twin beds plus two Twin trundle beds for extra sleeping options, an ensuite bathroom, an HDTV, and a generous furnished private view deck. A laundry room with a washer and dryer is also on the lower level. 

Serendipity offers full climate control heating and air conditioning throughout, plus high-speed WiFi internet. The quality and care with which the owners of Serendipity have furnished and outfitted this special mountain getaway are unparalleled. This has been their family vacation home for decades. We are excited to partner with them to share it with visiting families for the first time in its existence! Come enjoy a memorable family vacation at Serendipity and begin what will surely be a tradition of many more visits and a lifetime of memories!
