78 Deer Crest Road

What if your mountain getaway was just minutes from downtown Blue Ridge, with paved roads all the way home? Set on approximately 2.6 acres in the sought-after Aska Adventure Area, this four-bedroom retreat offers the privacy and mountain views you came for, without feeling miles from everything. With covered decks, outdoor fireplaces and a hot tub, the home is set up for the moments that make a trip memorable. Built in 2020 and previously used as a vacation rental, it's a place to enjoy yourself with the added appeal of rental potential. Inside, wood floors, exposed beams, shiplap accents and a stone fireplace give the main level a warm, easygoing feel. The open kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, plenty of cabinetry and a large island that naturally becomes the gathering spot. Big windows bring in the scenery, and glass doors lead to covered decks where you'll want to spend as much time as you do indoors. Start the morning with coffee and a view, enjoy dinner beside an outdoor fireplace, or slip into the private hot tub after a day on the trails. The primary suite opens to the deck and features a spacious bath with an oversized soaking tub. Three more bedrooms offer room for family and friends. On the finished terrace level, a second living area with a stone fireplace, wet bar and game room gives everyone space to spread out, with direct access outside. High-speed internet makes longer visits and remote work easy to manage. And when you're ready to head out, some of Blue Ridge's favorite places are close by. Spend the day boating on Lake Blue Ridge, hiking or fishing in Aska, then meet friends downtown for dinner or a little shopping. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a weekend escape or a property you can share with vacation guests, this one offers a lot of what makes mountain living so appealing: room to gather, outdoor spaces you'll actually use and a location that makes getting here—and getting around—simple.
