    What's special

    Tucked along the 14th green in Lake Monticello, this Cape Cod log home offers a rare blend of quiet country living and scenic golf course views on a private 0.68-acre lot. Start your mornings on the wraparound porch with coffee and birdsong, and wind down in the evenings as deer pass through the backyard. Inside, vaulted ceilings and warm wood tones create a space that feels both cozy and open, with engineered hardwood floors adding a fresh touch. The kitchen is bright and functional, featuring ample counter space and newer appliances, including an induction oven. The finished walkout basement provides flexible space for gathering, relaxing, or hosting guests. Just beyond, a fully finished, powered outbuilding with its own heating and cooling offers the perfect spot for a workshop, studio, or quiet retreat. Pre-inspected and thoughtfully maintained, this home isn’t just a place to live—it’s a place to slow down, spread out, and truly enjoy where you are. The heat is Hydronic Baseboard Heat and the boiler i snew as well as the Air Conditioning. So much added value!
