Description: One MILE from Blue Ridge Parkway with VERY EASY access to this 1-story ranch on 1+/- acres located at a cool 3500 ft elevation in the peaceful neighborhood of Balsam Meadows.

This home has two gravel driveways with one leading to the front and the side of the house with access to the back while the second one leads to the rear. Conveniently located close to the Great Smokey Mountain Expressway, you have easy access to the nearby towns of Waynesville (7 miles), Sylva (12 miles), Cherokee, and Asheville.
