It's all about the view! It's even better in person. Perched in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, 405 Glen Echo Circle is an opportunity to own a home that feels like a retreat. Imagine waking before dawn, stepping onto the screened porch, settling into the open deck, or simply sinking into the living room as the first light of day crests the ridge and the Blue Ridge Mountains unfold before you in a slow, breathtaking sunrise…just as the previous owner did, every single morning. The 180-degree mountain views stretch across the protected Green River Gamelands. Walls of windows in nearly every room pour natural light across deep amber red oak hardwood floors, filling the home with a warmth and coziness that’s felt the moment you walk through the door. It’s one-level living at its finest, with 3 bedrooms each with its own bathroom, and long-range views everywhere you look. Vaulted ceilings soar overhead, open transom ledges connect the living spaces in a way that feels intentional and airy, and the stone gas log fireplace anchors it all. Every room brings comfort in its own way. Step outside to find a yard that’s been loved and tended with real care. Established perennials, including rhododendron, azaleas, mountain laurel, and daffodils, return each year faithfully. A fenced front yard provides the perfect playspace for four-legged friends. Scattered boulders throughout the landscape serve as a gentle reminder that you are, in fact, living on the side of a mountain. The screened porch and double-layer open deck make outdoor living effortless, whether you’re entertaining, gardening, or simply doing nothing at all. For the buyer ready to make it their own, the kitchen and bathrooms offer exciting renovation potential with great layouts and solid foundations already in place. The finished walk-out basement provides more possibilities as a workshop, storage, guest suite, or recreation space. With vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a stone fireplace, and mountain views as your starting point, the bones of this home are truly something special. There is so much to work with, and so much to love exactly as it is. With high-speed fiber internet and only 5 minutes to I-26 and 7 minutes to downtown Saluda, you’ll be conveniently connected yet in a world of your own. Retreat to mountain living and schedule your showing today! Showings will start on April 8th.
