About This Home

As of August 2024

Own your own piece of Highlands history with this fully renovated 1940s Joe Webb cabin in Webbmont, which is just a 5-minute drive from downtown. The main house offers three beds and three bathrooms, including a private master suite in a setting that will make you feel like you're floating amongst the trees. The main floor comes with a guest bedroom and full bath, spacious living areas with fireplaces, including the original log cabin structure, and an entertainment-focused kitchen complete with high-end appliances including double ovens and dishwashers, perfect for family gatherings. A large screened-in porch off the kitchen is perfect for taking in an early morning coffee or sunset, offering privacy and seclusion that is hard to match this close to town. Finally, a downstairs bedroom and bathroom complete the main structure with a stone foundation that dates back to 1890. In addition to the main house, a guest house bungalow sits on the property with its own newly renovated kitchen and full bath, making it perfect as a getaway for guests. The entire property has been on the rental market and has generated attractive income since last fall - an added bonus for those looking to offset time away from the property. Offered furnished. Fireplace Features: 2 or more
