Nestled among the trees on 5 rolling acres just north of Springfield in the Williams School District, this charming log home offers the perfect blend of privacy, character, and functionality. A peaceful creek winds through the property, complemented by two versatile outbuildings. Inside, you'll find an updated kitchen, beautiful hardwood flooring, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a finished walkout lower level that adds valuable living space and warmth to the home’s inviting atmosphere. One of the outbuildings features partial heating and cooling, abundant storage space, and is already plumbed for a bathroom, offering endless possibilities for a workshop, hobby space, or future guest quarters.
