Two homes on 20+ unrestricted acres in Cullowhee offer privacy, versatility, and strong rental income potential just minutes from WCU. Fiber internet available. Both homes feature central heat and air with recent upgrades, including plumbing and mechanicals. The lower log cabin (2BR/1BA) was taken down to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt, blending modern updates with preserved charm. Refinished oak kitchen counters crafted from wood salvaged from the original 1930s cabin keep the heart and story of the home alive. Spacious living room with wood stove, built-ins, updated kitchen, laundry/utility room, and a large covered porch overlooking a loud, rushing creek create a peaceful mountain setting. The upper home (2BR/1BA) offers a great layout with a welcoming living room, wood stove, tongue-and-groove ceiling, entry foyer with built-in storage, spacious bath with adjacent laundry, and a large kitchen ready for updating with newer appliances already in place. Property includes a productive garden area, apple, peach, and cherry trees, plus a private hiking trail ideal for afternoon walks in your own backyard. Paved drive, ample parking, and multiple outbuildings.
