About This Home

First time on the market in over 60 years, 15 Cracker Jack Lane, a cherished family homestead brimming with history and mountain charm. The heart of the property is an original hand-hewn log home circa 1850s, beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated. Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting kitchen and living area, blending rustic character with modern comfort. Two en suite bedrooms, added in the 1960s and connected by a traditional “dog trot” breezeway, create the perfect blend of old and new. A detached two-car garage features a workbench, storage space, and a heated laundry room. Latest improvements include a new well, new septic system, French drain, and mini-split systems. Nestled on 1.95 acres of unrestricted land, bordered by U.S. Forest Service land and serenaded by the soothing sounds of the Middle Fork of Barkers Creek along its lower boundary, this special property captures the timeless spirit of mountain living—peaceful, private, and rich with history.
