About This Home

As of August 2024

Perfect runaway cabin or year round home! Level entry with Living Room, Eat in Kitchen, Primary Bedroom and Full Bath, all under Central Heat and Air. As you enter the living room, it offers a very open feeling with vaulted ceilings and sliding doors on two sides, which open to walk around deck from front to back. Large Dining / Kitchen area is loaded with cabinets and windows! Then find your way down the hall to the bathroom, and the primary bedroom in the back. As you are in kitchen, you can go out slider door to the covered deck area to another bedroom/den with laundry which also has plenty of light through another sliding door to side deck. There is also a covered stairway to the lower level where we have another bedroom and full bathroom. The home has a true mountain feel with all of the wood on the inside and woods on the outside! It is truly like sitting in a tree house. The house is being sold with most furniture with a few exceptions. Would also make a great rental. The current owner loved it for the easy access to fishing, yet no fear of flooding!!
