Now’s your chance to own one of Skip Kawell’s Miner’s Shacks! One of the mountains best builders built a number of these homes that he dubbed “Miner’s Shacks”. Each one is unique but all feature lots of knotty pine, open beamed ceilings and custom handmade doors. This was one of the earlier ones that he built around 1977. It features one bedroom and a full bath on the main level and a large loft above that overlooks the living area of the home. The living area is open to the kitchen and features a wood burning stove. There are a couple of pop out areas on the main level, one for the dining area and another for a small den or reading room. As you enter the den, there is a built in bunk bed area too. On the lower level is a family room for extra people to sleep and a 3/4 bath. There are three decks, one of which is just off the kitchen. The home is in a natural cedar grove setting in the Skyland area. You feel like you’re miles away from everything but there’s easy year round access, and good off street parking. This is one of the most popular homes in the area. When one of these Miner’s Shacks comes on the market, they don’t last long. Hurry before you’re too late to own one!
