The Story
3315 Mattox Cemetery Road
Set in scenic Wears Valley with beautiful mountain and valley views, this spacious property offers approximately 3,600 square feet across two levels, plus a 2-car garage and a large room beneath the garage. The setting, flexible floor plan, walkout lower level, and generous outdoor space create strong potential for a primary residence, second home, or short-term-rental transformation.
Major improvements have already been completed, including a new roof, a substantial new retaining wall, new LVP flooring, new drywall, new light fixtures, and new wiring with new outlets. And there is a new hot water heater. The kitchen still needs to be finished, and the bathrooms are ready for updating, allowing the next owner to complete the home with their preferred style and rental strategy.
The property offers three bonus rooms with excellent flexibility for bunk rooms, game rooms, office space, additional sleeping areas, or guest entertainment. With separate driveways serving the upper and lower levels, the layout may also offer the potential to create two independent monthly rental spaces--one upstairs and one downstairs--subject to all applicable zoning, permitting, septic capacity, and rental restrictions.
For an STR-focused renovation, the oversized room beneath the garage could become a standout amenity. Imagine a private theater, game room, or indoor pool room designed to give guests a true destination experience. An indoor pool could significantly increase guest appeal, help the property stand out among competing cabins, and potentially support stronger occupancy and nightly rates, depending on the final design, permitting, operating costs, and professional rental projections.
Additional features include two traditional fireplaces, a walkout lower level, a large concrete patio, mountain sunsets, and abundant space for guests to spread out.
