Step into the charm of this beautifully restored 19th-century cottage, set in a peaceful, picturesque setting. Built in 1893 (possibly earlier per previous owner), this 1 bed, 1 bath home blends historic character with modern updates. Original details have been thoughtfully preserved, from wood floors to intricate moldings, while key improvements add everyday comfort. Unique features include exposed log walls (visible in the kitchen, with more hidden behind finished walls) and carefully restored period finishes throughout. The updated kitchen offers modern convenience, while the inviting living room provides a cozy space to unwind. The spacious bedroom creates a quiet retreat. Outside, enjoy a private back yard, mature trees and well-maintained landscaping, along with an enclosed porch perfect for dining and a covered front porch ideal for relaxing and taking in the views. Two sheds provide added storage for tools, hobbies, or outdoor equipment.
