Single Family Detached Blowing Rock

A rare and historic opportunity — this 2-bedroom, 6-bathroom home on coveted Chestnut Circle in Blowing Rock is making its first-ever appearance on the market since being built in 1922. Cherished for over a century, this one-of-a-kind property sits on .70 acres and exudes timeless character at every turn.

Gather around the stunning stone wood-burning fireplace — the heart of the main living area — where rich hardwood floors set the tone for warmth and character throughout. Original hardwoods are believed to continue beneath the carpet on the main level as well, offering a buyer the exciting potential to uncover and restore even more of this home’s natural beauty.

A large sunroom overlooking the back of the property is the perfect place to start your morning with coffee or wind down in the evening — bathed in natural light and surrounded by the serene, wooded beauty of the grounds. The property also holds a compelling bonus: with selective tree removal, this home could enjoy a year-round view — a rare and valuable asset in one of Blowing Rock’s most desirable neighborhoods.

The home’s total footprint spans 3,248 square feet; please note that the second floor and basement are accessed via separate exterior entrances and are not counted as part of the main living square footage — offering a wonderful degree of flexibility and privacy for guests, extended family, or income potential.

The main level welcomes you with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, flowing seamlessly through a thoughtfully preserved floor plan. The lower level offers 3 additional bedrooms and 3 bathrooms — for multi-generational living or hosting. Upstairs, a generous flex space with its own bathroom awaits — perfect as a studio, home office, game room, or retreat.

Step outside and follow the charming winding rock walkway that connects you directly to the heart of downtown Blowing Rock — a stroll to Main Street that feels like a step back in time.

Note: one of the lower-level bathroom is in need of major repair. Stairs going to the upper floor have become unsafe. One of the support post have fallen. Please do not attempt walking up exterior staircase.
