BIG PRICE ADJUSTMENT! Motivated sellers! Bring an offer! Handsome log home on four beautiful acres with room for work, play, and possibility. Built in 1985 by Smoky Mountain Log Homes and recently renovated throughout, this almost 2,200 square foot home offers easy main-level living with a first-floor primary suite, updated kitchen and baths, laundry room, and a spacious family room with fireplace for cozy fall and winter evenings. The large front porch overlooks fields and rolling hills. Just 8 miles from Carrboro and minutes from Saxapahaw's country store and music hall, with quick access to Chapel Hill, UNC, Hillsborough, Mebane, Burlington, and Elon. The property is unrestricted, with room to add a guest house, studio, or in-law dwelling. A two-story workshop with 200-amp service and propane heat is ready for the woodworker, artist, mechanic, or maker -- a serious building, not a hobby shed. Fenced areas welcome pets, chickens, or fowl to prowl. A winding creek threads through wooded buffer to a heritage orchard awaiting its next chapter, and the mix of mature trees and open ground supports small-scale farming, gardening, or simple serenity. Four acres. Real workshop. Renovated log home. Room to grow into.
