About this home
Escape to your own private mountain hideaway in this FULLY FURNISHED 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom log-sided cabin on almost five wooded acres. Tucked away for peace and privacy, yet close to the 4-lane highway and only minutes from town, this property offers the perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility. Through a canopy of hardwoods and pines, the gravel driveway takes you from the paved road frontage right to the front steps, or you can park beneath the double carport, which includes a powered storage room. A second outbuilding with power and outdoor covered storage provides even more flexibility. A stepping-stone path leads around to the back porch of the cabin and leads you into the welcoming kitchen, with laminate floors that continue throughout the main level, lots of cabinet and counter space, and stainless-steel appliances. The kitchen opens to a bright, spacious dining area and the living room, with a wood-burning stone fireplace, beautifully framed by a warm wood accent wall. Sliding glass doors bring in the light and open onto a full-length screened porch overlooking the peaceful, wooded surroundings. The main-level bedroom is conveniently located just off the living room, with a full bathroom and laundry area nearby. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms have vaulted ceilings, one with sliding glass doors to a private balcony overlooking the trees. Beyond the home, approximately 4 acres of walking trails wind through the property to a productive organic garden area complete with a solar powered greenhouse, solar panels, composting system, irrigation system, and multiple established raised beds ready for your green thumb. And with Fiber Optic internet, house solar panels (currently unhooked), and a whole-home generator, this idyllic setting feels worlds away from town while keeping you connected to modern conveniences and peace of mind.
