Perched gracefully atop a private hill in Nelson County, this extraordinary custom log residence offers 26 pristine acres of seclusion, craftsmanship, and natural splendor. The meandering drive passing by the bold Buffalo Creek sets a tone of quiet anticipation as it winds through the landscape. Constructed with the enduring quality the home showcases thoughtful construction, authentic tongue-and-groove flooring, and an open architectural stairway that serves as both focal point and statement of artistry. Railings handcrafted from timber harvested directly from the land create a seamless connection between structure and setting. Anchoring the residence is the fireplace built from stone quarried in Schuyler. The design offers two bedrooms on the main level, while a sleeping loft open to below below provides an intimate retreat framed by soaring ceilings. Located just 15 minutes from the Town of Lovingston. A rare offering where craftsmanship, water, acreage, and rural living converge.
