Escape the noise and live in your own private forest retreat just five minutes east of College Mall on Highway 46. This rare 1920s log cabin sits completely secluded on 150 wooded acres with 6 miles of private walking trails offering total privacy, nature, and a peaceful break from city life without being far from town.
Inside, the home features soaring 14-foot ceilings with a loft overlooking the living room, creating an open, cozy lodge-style feel. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main space, while a second fireplace adds warmth and ambiance throughout the home. Original character meets modern comfort with hardwood floors and a newly remodeled kitchen and bathroom.
Step outside and you'll feel like you're on a permanent weekend getaway. Enjoy mornings on the screened-in front porch, sunsets from the limestone side porch, or evenings soaking in the six-person hot tub with an outdoor shower and a breathtaking forest view.
