Tucked among mature trees with a peaceful creek running behind the property, this rustic retreat offers privacy, charm, and endless potential. Featuring Western White Pine siding and passive solar design, this unique home blends natural surroundings with simple, efficient living. Enjoy the inviting brick patio, plenty of parking, and a tranquil setting that feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle. The property includes an attached shed with cold water and washer/dryer hookups, plus additional storage and workspace options. Real stucco concrete walls and floors provide durability, while a mini-split system, and ceiling fans offer year-round comfort. Being sold as-is, this property presents a rare opportunity for someone looking to personalize a one-of-a-kind home or weekend getaway in a beautiful natural setting. Seller Financing Available! NOTE: The 2nd floor ceiling height is below what appraisers typically require in order for the sf to be included in living square footage.
