Once the Sugar Grove Mill, this unique and historic home has been part of the fabric of the Cove Creek community for almost 200 years. Historical records trace the Sugar Grove Mill to 1840, and the mill remained in operation into the late 1960s before eventually becoming the residence you see today. Following an earlier fire, portions were rebuilt around 1920, and today elements of the original mill remain thoughtfully woven throughout the home—a tangible connection to nearly two centuries of High Country history. Step through the front door into a spacious, open living and kitchen area filled with character. Two bedrooms sit on opposite sides of the main living space, each with an attached full bath, creating a comfortable and private layout. Cove Creek is a captivating companion: windows from the living room and bedroom look toward the water, while one bedroom opens directly onto the back deck overlooking the creek—a beautiful place to sit, listen, and watch the seasons move through the valley. Upstairs, a separate living space offers additional flexibility, complete with its own kitchen, full bath, and private deck. It can be accessed from a separate entrance off the front porch as well as through an interior door near the laundry room, creating a distinct space for guests, extended household living, a studio, or other possibilities appropriate to the home. The setting carries a history all its own. Located in the Sugar Grove community approximately 15 minutes from Boone and Appalachian State University, the home sits just down the block from the Western Watauga Community Center and the local library. Nearby is the historic Cove Creek School, a striking stone landmark completed in 1940 and today serving the community in new ways. This is not a house stripped of its past and made new. Its history is still visible. The old mill remains part of the architecture, Cove Creek still moves alongside it, and generations of mountain life surround it. For the next steward, the opportunity is a gem: a home with history, an extraordinary sense of place, flexible living space, and room for imagination—all within easy reach of Boone. The Old Mill is ready for its next chapter. *Listed as 2 bedrooms because of the septic permit but there is a full apartment, full bath, kitchen, and room upstairs with a separate entrance option.

Welcome to Honeycreek Highlands, a rare and versatile 22-acre farm in the Cove Creek area of the High Country, just 15 minutes from Boone. At the heart of the property is a fully renovated 1930s farmhouse surrounded by rolling pasture, fenced pasture, mountain views, a meandering creek, established gardens, barns, and outbuildings. Currently operated as a small working farm, the property is well-suited for horses, livestock, gardening, homesteading, or simply enjoying the mountain lifestyle. Honeycreek Highlands can be enjoyed as it is today with outstanding long-term potential. With no zoning or deed restrictions, the acreage may lend itself to a multigenerational compound, additional residences, agritourism, or a short-term rental buildout. Several potential homesites are located higher on the property to capture broader mountain views. The farmhouse has undergone extensive renovation, including updated siding, windows, plumbing, electrical service, roof, septic system, and heating/air. A show-stopping kitchen addition completed in 2026 opened the home while preserving the warmth and character of the original structure. The oversized kitchen features vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, large windows, and custom black walnut and hickory countertops crafted from trees that came down on the property during Hurricane Helene, creating a meaningful connection between the home and its land. The spacious layout offers room for a large farmhouse dining table, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Walls of windows overlook the fenced front yard, rolling hills, gardens, and rear pasture. Double doors create a seamless connection to the outdoor living areas and large vegetable garden. An adjacent shed offers future potential as an outdoor pavilion or gathering space. The single-level home includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a new bath added with the recent expansion. Old and new have been thoughtfully blended, while wood paneling and original details preserve timeless farmhouse character. Outdoor living includes two covered front porches and a rear patio area ideal for a hot tub. The entire area around the home is fenced and accessed by an automatic gate, creating a secure space for pets and outdoor recreation. A gentle creek flows along the lower edge of the front yard. The driveway offers ample parking and leads to an oversized two-car carport incorporated into an original barn structure with generous storage. Two additional outbuildings sit near the home, including one improved with reclaimed fence wood and a concrete floor for a future studio, workshop, or creative space. The lower pasture includes a shed, chicken coop, wellhouse, and barn, while the upper fenced pasture provides generous room for horses or other animals. Beyond the established farm areas, the acreage rises toward the ridgeline with wooded terrain and striking rock outcroppings. Tucked near the end of a quaint country road just across from Cove Creek, Honeycreek Highlands feels well-insulated while remaining convenient to Boone, Valle Crucis, Watauga Lake, and destinations throughout the High Country. Rarely does a property offer this combination of usable acreage, farm infrastructure, residential charm, unrestricted potential, convenient access, and immersive natural beauty.
