Tranquil Creekside Retreat on 4.27 Acres : A Hidden Gem with Waterfall, Wildlife & Wonder. Step into serenity at this truly one-of-a-kind retreat where nature, water, and peaceful living come together in perfect harmony. Spanning 4.27 acres across two wooded lots, this property features an impressive 330 feet of crystal-clear Big Cannon Creek meandering through your backyard. The creek’s sandy bottom and glimpses of brook trout invite quiet moments of reflection or a refreshing summer dip. Beside the home, a hand-crafted stone waterfall channels the creek’s flow into a tranquil gazing pond—creating a soothing, natural soundscape that soothes the soul. Mature pines and lush flower beds filled with irises, lilies, and low-maintenance blooms surround the home with color and calm. The cottage is comfortably simple, with a metal roof, two screened porches for immersive outdoor living, a cozy fireplace with rustic mantle, and a charming, open-concept kitchen and dining area. Two generously sized bedrooms and a versatile third room, once a kitchen, now perfect for guests or hobbies, adjoin the laundry space. Modern comforts include two hot water heaters, a whole-house generator, well and septic, and all major appliances. An expansive garage and workshop space (24x24 pole barn addition to an original 20x16 garage plus lean-to) offers plenty of storage for tools, toys, or creative pursuits. This property isn’t flashy, it’s something better. It’s magical, peaceful, and unforgettable. Whether you're seeking a weekend escape, an artist's hideaway, or a place to simply breathe, this rare slice of creekside paradise delivers.
