Tucked away on 5.29 private wooded acres in Mount Airy, this truly one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, space, and versatility. This 6-bedroom, 3.5-bath Western Red Cedar cabin with a large traditional-style addition is anything but ordinary. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted by dramatic soaring ceilings, warm cedar finishes, and custom touches throughout. The exterior cabin walls are double-course construction totaling over nine inches thick, providing exceptional insulation and efficiency. The main living level features five bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, offering flexibility for family, guests, or home office needs. The kitchen has been updated with newer appliances, making it both functional and inviting for everyday living and entertaining. Major systems have been thoughtfully maintained, with the roof, water heater, heat pump/HVAC all under four years old, giving buyers added peace of mind. The fully finished lower level includes a sixth bedroom, full bath, workshop, living room, kitchenette, and separate laundry area. Registered as an apartment with its own address and private walkout access to an additional parking area, it’s ideal for multigenerational living, guest quarters, or potential rental income. Step outside and you’ll find even more to love. Two barns add incredible functionality, including one with a finished upper level perfect for gaming, hobbies, or unforgettable sleepovers. Multiple picnic and gathering areas create inviting spaces for entertaining and making memories. The rear three wooded acres are an outdoor enthusiast’s dream, featuring established hiking, go-kart, and ATV trails with endless loops, curls, and branches for year-round adventure right in your own backyard. To make maintaining and enjoying the property even easier, a UTV equipped with a plow and leaf sweeper is included with the sale. The home is equipped with an emergency generator, cable TV, internet, and landline service, and the gutters have been recently upgraded with a LeafFilter system—meaning no more gutter cleaning. If you’ve been searching for privacy, character, space, and a property that truly stands apart, this Mount Airy retreat offers a lifestyle that’s hard to find and even harder to leave.
