About This Home

Step back in time without giving up comfort at this historic log cabin on over 6 Unrestricted acres, set across from a wide open field with pasture views. Originally believed to date to around 1870, the cabin was professionally raised and leveled, then expanded with a 2005 addition, blending old world character with more modern living. Main-level living with a cozy bedroom and full bath, wood-burning fireplace, farm-style kitchen sink, with a mix of vintage details and 1980s–1990s updates that make the interior feel more polished than the cabin's Historic exterior. Upstairs is a loft-style bedroom with half bath accessed by ladder-type stairs. Outside the cabin, you've got room to really use your land. Multiple potential building sites and paths to wander through the woods, plus additional acreage that adjoins the river on a lower portion, perfect for a future gazebo, fire pit, or whatever ideas you bring with you. Unrestricted status gives you flexibility, whether you keep it as a historic retreat, add another cabin, or simply enjoy the space and privacy.

As a proud member of the Sheila Myers Team at Keller Williams in Franklin, NC, I bring not only a personal touch but also years of hands-on experience to every real estate transaction. Having lived in over 60 homes growing up, I developed a deep appreciation for the emotional and practical aspects of buying and selling. That journey shaped my understanding of what it truly means to find the right fit—or to part ways with a place full of memories—and it fuels my commitment to guiding clients
