A Rare Expression of Appalachian Craftsmanship & Mountain Charm! Beautifully positioned alongside peaceful Chestnut Creek and just 10 minutes from downtown West Jefferson, this authentic log cabin offers a wonderful combination of character, convenience, and mountain living. With over 200 feet of creek frontage, a beautifully landscaped and remarkably flat, usable setting, this property provides an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy the sights and sounds of the creek right from home. The cabin captures the timeless appeal of an Appalachian retreat, with warm natural logs complemented by exceptional stonework, a handsome stone chimney, and a cozy fireplace insert that creates an inviting gathering space. The 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout offers comfortable mountain living, while the enclosed sunroom and back deck provide ideal places to relax and enjoy the peaceful creekside setting throughout the seasons. The cabin is in excellent condition and has been meticulously maintained, with numerous important improvements already completed. The logs were professionally resealed inside and out in 2023, hardwood floors were refinished in 2023, and a new HVAC system was installed in 2023. Gutters were replaced in 2019. A large storage building, finished to complement the cabin's exterior, blends seamlessly with the property and provides excellent additional storage. Plenty of parking, great year-round access, and the close proximity to downtown West Jefferson add to the convenience. Authentic character, over 200 feet of creek frontage, a beautifully usable setting, and meticulous maintenance—this is the kind of Appalachian mountain property that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
