Historic charm meets modern convenience in this beautifully renovated Black Mountain cottage. For years, the community has admired Clara Lee’s Cottage and wondered when it might come on the market. Now, this much-loved home is ready for its next owner. Located within the Black Mountain city limits, the cottage is just minutes from the shops, restaurants, parks, hiking trails and character of historic downtown. Adding to its appeal, the home is being sold furnished, creating a truly turnkey opportunity. Simply move in and begin enjoying everything Black Mountain has to offer. Adorable at first sight, easy to maintain and lovingly cared for, it underwent an extensive renovation in 2016 that included new drywall and insulation, a new driveway, fiber-cement board-and-batten siding, engineered hardwood flooring and dual-pane, double-hung windows. The roof was installed in 2014, and the 200-amp electrical service and panel were upgraded in 2013. The inviting, light-filled interior offers two bedrooms, one full bathroom and a comfortable living room, all arranged on an easy one-level floor plan with no carpet to maintain. Classic trim and abundant natural light add warmth and character throughout. The exceptionally appointed kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, glass-front display cabinets, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, stainless-steel appliances, recessed lighting and a generous breakfast bar. Thoughtful storage includes corner cabinet organizers, a built-in spice rack and a space-saving stacked washer and dryer concealed behind cabinetry. One of the cottage’s most appealing features is its spacious screened porch, offering a wonderful extension of the living space and a perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or entertaining friends. A generous rear deck provides additional outdoor living. The beautifully manicured lawn creates exceptional curb appeal and has earned frequent admiration from neighbors. A paved driveway and coordinating detached storage building provide added convenience. Clara Lee’s Cottage carries a special connection to Black Mountain’s history. Kerlee Heights was platted in 1913 by “C.P.” Kerlee, a member of one of the area’s founding families and an important figure in the town’s residential development. More than a century later, the home is owned by his descendant, continuing the family’s connection to the neighborhood that bears its name. Whether you’re looking for a full-time residence, weekend mountain getaway, second home, or turnkey investment, Clara Lee’s Cottage offers the opportunity to own a thoughtfully renovated cottage in one of Western North Carolina’s most desirable mountain communities. County tax records indicate the home was built in 1930; however, the 2007 Black Mountain Architectural Survey estimates circa 1950, and the seller’s family history identifies 1954 as the year of construction.
