Nestled on 12 wooded acres across four separate parcels in Mount Vernon, this Appalachian log home constructed with hickory logs offers timeless craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and natural seclusion. With over 2,000 square feet, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom home blends rustic charm with modern comfort in a setting that feels like a private retreat. Inside, the home features authentic log interior walls with exposed beams, warm wood tones, and light chinking that highlights the natural grain of the hickory logs. A vaulted ceiling with an open loft above the kitchen and living room enhances the sense of space and airiness while preserving the cozy, cabin feel. The living room centers around a wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting place to gather. Bamboo floors stained in dark walnut add richness. Bedrooms are generously sized with the master having an ensuite with a large walk-in closet. Recent updates include a new heat pump, furnace, and central A/C, along with electrical improvements. The home is supplied by fresh spring water, adding to its self-sufficient and nature-centered lifestyle. Set smack in the middle of mature woods, the cabin is surrounded by uninterrupted views in every direction — towering trees and the calming rhythm of the forest. The full basement offers storage and workspace, adding functionality to the home. A separate Amish-built log cabin guest house, constructed in 2021, adds charm and functionality to the property. Tucked just a short distance from the main log home, this private retreat overlooks wooded ravine and the run, offering quiet seclusion and scenic views. It includes a loft, outhouse, propane heat source, generator hookup, and additional storage — making it ideal for hosting guests, creative use, or simply enjoying peaceful time in nature. Outdoors, this property truly shines! Armstrong Run flows through the land, adding the peaceful sound of moving water in the Spring and a vibrant natural feature that cuts through the trees. Whether you're enjoying morning coffee on the porch or watching the sun filter through the canopy, the setting is both private and awe-inspiring. It’s a rare find for those who crave complete immersion in nature without sacrificing comfort. Appointments required—please do not drive down the lane without a licensed Realtor.
