Property Description

Designed as both a proven short-term rental investment and a peaceful mountain retreat, this cabin offers privacy, space, and exceptional areas for entertaining while feeling worlds away yet remaining just minutes from town. The home shines with a full-width covered party deck featuring a stone-clad wood-burning fireplace, hot tub, and ample seating that sets the tone for relaxed gatherings in every season. The exterior showcases classic dovetailed log corners and a full-width front porch, while inside the open-concept main living area stuns with vaulted ceilings, beautiful architectural trusses, tongue-and-groove wood walls and ceilings, and upper clerestory windows that flood the space with natural light. A stone-clad gas fireplace with a live-edge mantel anchors the living room, complemented by wide-plank hardwood floors throughout the main level. The kitchen is both functional and inviting with oak cabinets, granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, a built-in coffee bar, and an island with breakfast bar topped by thick, rustic solid wood. The finished walk-out basement adds exceptional flexibility with Lifeproof flooring, rustic tin-paneled ceilings, a bonus room featuring a freestanding gas fireplace stove, indoor shuffleboard and foosball, two bunk beds, and a spacious storage room. Outdoors, enjoy a fire pit, a seasonal creek at the back of the property, frequent deer sightings, and access to the community creek on Tickanetley Creek, which offers trout fishing and a waterfront pavilion where kids can play and residents gather. A detached two-car garage offers a dry home for your vehicles plus generous attic storage. Currently operating as an active short-term rental, the property is offered furnished minus personal and staging items, with those available via a separate bill of sale. Don't miss your chance to own this well-loved mountain escape and income-producing opportunity.
