Welcome to Cool Spring, where peaceful mountain living meets the convenience of being just minutes from downtown Clayton. Ideally located for an active lifestyle, this property puts Clayton's restaurants, shops, galleries, and community amenities within easy reach-whether you prefer to walk, run, bike, or take a short drive. Inside, the main level offers a spacious, open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area designed for comfortable everyday living and easy entertaining. Built-ins add character and function, while a gas-log fireplace creates a warm and inviting gathering space. Three bedrooms and two full baths are just two steps from the parking area, offering exceptional accessibility and convenience for guests and homeowners of all ages. The lower level adds even more flexibility with an additional bedroom and full bath, along with unfinished space currently used as a workshop. With its own garage door and driveway, this area offers excellent potential for a home office, hobby space, storage, a game room, or future finished living area. The home features durable, low-maintenance materials and generous covered porches that extend the living space outdoors and provide the perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or evenings enjoying the mountain air. The property encompasses an unusually generous 3.78 acres across two parcels, with the home situated on 1.46 acres and an additional 2.32-acre parcel just below. The expansive setting provides rare flexibility in this convenient Clayton location, with potential for an additional home, guest house, detached workshop, or simply the privacy and breathing room that larger acreage provides. A substantial tall metal carport adds even more practical storage and covered parking for cars, trucks and RV's. Peaceful setting. Convenient location. Flexible living space. And acreage with possibilities rarely found this close to downtown Clayton. Cool Spring offers the opportunity to enjoy the best of mountain living without giving up the convenience of town. With proper licenses and approval by the city this home can be rented short term. Come experience the property and imagine the possibilities for yourself.
