About this property

Our Mountain Oasis - Where Christmas Is All Year - Single Story - Pet Friendly

Relax and unwind at Our Mountain Oasis! Our 3 bedroom, 3 bath, single story home is easy on your back, no need to lug suitcases up or down flights of stairs. The open floor plan provides the perfect gathering place for family and friends but when it is time for some quiet seclusion, each bedroom is located for privacy. Our home includes 2 suites on opposite sides of the house, each with it's own private, uncovered deck to enjoy your early morning coffee. In the living room, 2 sets of large sliding doors expand the living area further onto a large screened deck with ample seating for relaxing. This is the ideal spot for wine and conversation. The deck also includes a dining area to enjoy your steak fresh off the grill. The elevated deck offers soft breezes and a mountain view that feels as if you are floating in the trees. On cool evenings, lounge in front of one of the gas fireplaces located in the living room or on the deck. Our elegantly rustic home with its beautiful wood accents has a quiet, private ambiance yet you have easy access to the Sapphire Valley Masters Association amenities, local outdoor activities, and even some shopping if you so desire. Whether you are joining us for the solitude of a comfortable home away from home or looking to spend your days packed with outdoor pursuits, we know you will cherish the time you spend here and we will be proud to welcome you back time and time again.

About the host

Hosted by Dorothy Young

Host profile image
My husband and I are native Texans and still generally reside in Texas where my husband owns his own real estate company. He has been a real estate broker all his adult life and we have cherished the joy of ushering families into their new homes. As for me, I have been blessed to have a career as an RN for over 40 years. I started my career as an officer in the Army Nurse Corps, proudly serving this wonderful nation. My master's degree is in emergency care and triage but I was also a hospice nurse for many years. We have 4 wonderful children and 4 energetic grandchildren, of which we are very proud. We are so glad to share our home with you and know you will enjoy your time here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

In 2019 we took our first trip to North Carolina and absolutely fell in love with the beauty of this unique geographical area. Located in a rain forest, the lush green of the foliage and the magnificent mountains literally made every turn in the road a moment to treasure and a feast for the eyes. When we are here, we are in a cocoon of quiet peace where our minds are calmed, we can brush off our troubles, and simply relax. We unplug, literally, and it is an amazing balm for the soul. When you visit with us we hope you will do the same.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the expansive feel as we first stepped into our home. The open living room/kitchen/dining room offers cluster areas for private conversation or work yet allows participation from all sides of the room if desired. The large screened deck which is nestled in the trees offers a protected area to enjoy the outdoors no matter what the weather brings. As I presently sit on the deck typing this for you, I am greeted by the sunset peeking through the clouds even as gentle rain drops splatter on the leaves of the trees surrounding me. I hear the birds calling to each other in the distance and the wind rustling through the branches. Just imagine yourself here, sitting with your feet up on the ottoman as I am, leaving the worries of the world behind just for the day.
