About this home

Tucked among the trees on just over an acre and a half, this FULLY FURNISHED traditional D-log cabin blends into nature with its modern practicality, metal roof, welcoming front porch, and expansive rear deck, creating an inviting, peaceful, restful area to live in. Enter from the front porch into an open-air kitchen and living area designed for entertaining or enjoying complete solitude. The kitchen features Ubatuba countertops a popular durable natural stone from Brazil, an island with bar seating, black appliances, including a microwave, stove, and refrigerator. Upper and lower cabinets provide ample storage. A wall-mounted heating and air-conditioning unit provides year-round comfort. Classic tongue-and-groove knotty pine covers the floors, walls, and vaulted ceilings, filling the interior with warmth and character. Large windows bring abundant natural light into the airy space, while a stacked-stone fireplace casts a cozy glow. Mountain-etched glass doors celebrate the surrounding terrain and wildlife ambience that opens to a porch extending beyond the length of the home. From here, one can enjoy views of the gently sloping backyard, mature trees, and a small central clearing. Rock and wood steps built into the landscape provide backyard access. The main-level primary bedroom offers views of both the front and rear yards, plentiful light, and a sizable closet. Centrally located off the hall, the full bathroom includes a single-sink vanity, shower, and step-in tub. The Ubatuba countertop beautifully accents the golden tones of the natural wood. Conveniently and cleverly positioned between the kitchen and bathroom, is the combined laundry, utility, and storage room that makes efficient use of the home's footprint and optimum usage. Above, a ladder-accessible loft serves as the second bedroom, offering elevated views of the driveway and wooded surroundings. This distinctive two-bedroom, one-bath cabin delivers rustic charm, thoughtful functionality, and a quiet connection to nature. As an added convenience Fiber Optic internet is available. Also a radon mitigation system is included. Are you ready to take that deep breath, relax and live one with nature with all the luxuries this home offers?
