About This Home
As of July 2025SECLUDED LOG CABIN RETREAT ON 1.7 ACRES - ESTATE SALE! Escape to your own private haven in this charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath log cabin nestled on 1.7 peaceful acres backing up to a beautiful nature preserve. Tucked away and incredibly private, this property offers the serenity of the woods with the comfort of home. Step onto the spacious front porch-perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets! Enter a home filled with natural light, soaring beams and rich character. The all hardwood floors, sourced from a Virginia tobacco farm, bring warmth and timeless beauty throughout. Upstairs you'll find a private en-suite retreat featuring a full bath with a jetted tub and a 13x6 sitting area outside the room-your personal sanctuary. The home also offers a full poured basement, providing ample space for storage or future finishing. The outdoor space was once a featured stop on the 2018 Garden walk, lovingly maintained as a lush, private oasis, complete with a man-made pond in the backyard. The gardens have grown quiet but hold incredible potential for someone to bring them back to life. This is an estate sale. Home is sold as-is. No repairs will be made, though no known issues are reported.
