About this House

What's unique:Picturesque storybook log cabinVaulted ceilingUpdated tile showerCozy wood stoveNatural woodwork

100-mile views from this picturesque storybook log cabin located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway! Entering the living room with a vaulted ceiling and a cozy wood stove, the natural woodwork shines throughout. The bedroom and bath are spacious, with an updated tile shower. Upstairs is a loft that can be used as a separate sleeping space or recreation room. The cabin could be expanded on or kept just as it is. This property would also make an excellent short-term rental or weekend getaway. Tucked away and checking so many mountain getaway boxes, these types of properties do not come available very often. The property taxes are based on the larger parcel; this cabin on .681 acres will be divided off at closing and the taxes will be a lot less.
