Property Description
SELLER IS OFFERING A CONCESSION toward buyer’s closing costs or rate buy down —an excellent opportunity to lower out-of-pocket expenses and make homeownership more affordable. This unique 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin sits on a generous 1.85-acre lot with a new roof and paid-off Solar, offering the perfect blend of privacy, character, and income potential. With the enclosed porch and loft, the home comfortably sleeps 8 people. Crafted with hand-hewn beams and timeless attention to detail, the home is as much a piece of art as it is a cozy mountain retreat. From the moment you step onto the welcoming covered front porch—complete with a swing bed for lazy afternoons and stargazing nights—you’ll be captivated by the warmth and charm this property radiates. Inside, the cabin features a rustic-modern vibe with an open-concept living space anchored by a stone fireplace and exposed timber beams that tell stories of old-world craftsmanship.
