About this home

Tucked on nearly 8 acres just outside Brevard, this well-maintained log cabin offers the privacy and mountain lifestyle so many buyers dream about. The property has several other building spots for additional homes or large workshop/garage. Vaulted, cathedral wood ceilings soar overhead in the main living space, anchored by a stunning stone fireplace that runs floor to ceiling. Custom locust and rhododendron branch railings add authentic mountain character throughout, while the open kitchen with generous island space flows easily into the living and dining areas. A loft overlooks the main level, offering flexible space for an office, reading nook, or additional sleeping quarters. Retreat to the screened porch or deck to take in the wooded, rolling landscape, or gather around the firepit for evenings under the stars. The partially finished basement workshop adds even more versatility for hobbies, storage, or a home gym. Outdoor lovers will appreciate direct bike access into DuPont State Recreational Forest, a true mountain biker's dream with miles of trails, waterfalls, and protected lands just beyond the driveway. Minutes from downtown Brevard's shops, dining, arts, and music scene, this private retreat delivers the best of Transylvania County living.
