What's special

Spectacular mountain viewsSweeping mountain viewsLuxurious log homeStunning open-concept great room

This premier rural retreat offers a total of 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths on 10 open and level acres, including 4 bedrooms and 3 baths in the main home, plus a detached guest cottage with its own bedroom and bath. Set against a backdrop of sweeping mountain views, this luxurious log home offers the kind of setting most people only dream about. The heart of the home is a stunning open-concept great room showcasing dramatic vaulted ceilings with exposed timber trusses and warm tongue-and-groove wood finishes throughout. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with light and frame spectacular mountain views. Rooms are generously sized, and the quality of construction is evident throughout. All the Rocky Top log furniture conveys (an $8,000 value), as well as everything in the guest house. The guest cottage provides consistent rental income, but is also ideal for multi-generational living or a private space for guests. The pastoral 10-acre property is horse-ready with a fenced pasture and run-in shed already in place. Enjoy incredible mountain views from nearly every rear-facing window—an ever-changing backdrop you’ll never tire of.
