Looking for a true piece of Appalachian history? This authentic mid-1800s log cabin, relocated and constructed on this site in 1982, is tucked between Blowing Rock and Boone just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, and offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and mountain seclusion. Set on 1.5 acres in the Huckleberry Knob subdivision, the cabin features classic hand-hewn logs, a peaceful natural setting, and timeless character. In addition to the main cabin, the property includes a detached one-car garage with a studio apartment above, a fenced-in dog run, and a small studio or shed space—ideal for hobbies, storage, or creative use. The home is heated with two kerosene monitor heaters and cooled with stand-alone A/C units, and a shared spring supplies water to the property. Short-term rentals are permitted, making it a potential income-producing getaway. Although the home hasn’t been lived in for some time and is being sold as-is, its potential is limitless. Some appliances may not be in working order, and the crawl space needs mitigation. Furnishings are negotiable. This is a rare chance to own a genuine 150-year-old mountain retreat with stories to tell and memories to make.
