About This Home

As of November 2022

No HOA , No restrictions, no neighbors in sight! Just 15 minutes from Carter's Lake and many noisy rivers and streams nearby!

Are you craving a simpler life? Do you dream of a small single-story cabin tucked in the woods where you can live in peace? Would you enjoy curling up next to a roaring wood fire in your fireplace? Or do you crave a gathering spot where friends will visit to enjoy conversation around a fire pit? You should get to live where others come to play. Stop dreaming and start living your dream life today!

This rustic little gem on 1.25 acres might be just what your heart desires. Vaulted ceilings and skylights make the home feel more expansive. The walls and ceilings are all wood – with just enough sheetrock to encourage a touch of color on the kitchen and bathroom walls.

The flex room would be the perfect craft or hobby room. It has rock walls and a partial rock floor with low windows to look out while seated. Add French doors to create a small retreat that could double as a guest room.

The covered porch in the back allows you plenty of room for outside dining plus room for a conversation area. You will enjoy the seasonal long range views that will start popping through the falling leaves any time now. You could easily screen all or a portion of the deck for your enjoyment. If you listen carefully while you are outside, you can hear the sound of the rushing water from nearby Mountaintown Creek.

The neighborhood hills provide the perfect location for a daily walk for a little exercise. There are homes around so you don’t feel isolated, but not close enough that you feel crowded. The house sits on a dead end road with only 2 other cabins.

There is plenty of room to make the space your own – whether you want to maintain the carefree woods as your yard or create your own garden spot with greenhouse or gazebo….there is so much possibility to make this little cabin your own vision of perfection.
