About This Home

As of August 2025

Great log cabin with exceptional privacy on almost two acres - enjoy year round views of Little Panthertail Mountain and more. The spacious covered front porch provides the perfect spot to enjoy sunrises, sunsets, and serenity. The open back and side decks are accessible from the great room via two sets of French doors. Two wood-burning, stone fireplaces accent the living area and master suite. One guest suite is on the main level; the third bedroom and bath are on the upper level. On the upper level, the open loft overlooking great room is light and bright - provides space for hobbies, office, or whatever you require - large windows and dormers make it a happy place. The master suite on the main level is highlighted by a custom designed bath with lovely tile shower, jetted tub, radiant floor heat, heated towel bars, and more - great mountain view from jetted tub! The back yard has a fenced area for pets, rock gardens for herbs and perennials and the deck provides a fun place for enjoying a snack or your evening meal. The location gives you quick access to NC 281 to travel to your favorite destinations - Pisgah and Nantahala National Forests, Gorges State Park, Cashiers, Highlands, Brevard each with fine dining establishments as well as those closer by in the Lake Toxaway and Sapphire areas. Also enjoy the numerous waterfalls the area is noted for and perhaps take some awe-inspiring drives on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
