    What's special

    Custom made stone patioSpacious screened porch
    RIVERFRONT RETREAT CABIN. Immaculate cozy 2 BR/2 BA log cabin with 5+ acres overlooking the North Fork New River, convenient to both Jeffersons and the booming little town of Lansing. Two wooded riverfront lots side by side provide a buffer zone for privacy, or new owners could sell one vacant lot if they so choose, or even build another house there. This pretty little log cabin was the very first home constructed in the Riverwood development back in 1984-85, and the same folks still own it today. They use it every summer for several months but spend their winters in Florida. Original cabin was renovated and expanded in 1996-7 by the same builder. Quality craftsmanship and attention to detail is evident, as is the meticulous maintenance by the owners. Crawl space features sealed area with dehumidifier. All original plumbing lines replaced with pex. Outbuilding beside well head contains new water filtration system to mitigate hard water. There is a wooden recreation deck overlooking the river, accessed by steep steps. Riverwood property owners also enjoy the use of an easily accessible waterfront recreation and picnic area a little further down the road. This cabin features a spacious screened porch on one end that is accessed via a custom made stone patio, as well as a freestanding wood lounging deck out front under the trees, and a raised wooden access porch for the kitchen doorway entrance. So there's plenty of room to stretch and relax for multiple people. All furniture conveys at no additional cost to Buyers, except for a few personal items that Sellers will remove. This is an Instant Living log home package in a quiet, secluded and desirable location, yet still convenient to all the fun amenities that Ashe County has to offer. Don't Delay, See Today!
