Step inside and you’re immediately welcomed by the warmth and charm that only a true log home can provide. The spacious living room features a vaulted ceiling and a stunning stone fireplace, creating a cozy yet impressive focal point for gatherings. Natural light pours in, highlighting the rich wood tones and rustic details throughout. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, complete with a center island, generous counter space, and a bright breakfast nook overlooking the property. A separate formal dining room provides the perfect setting for holidays and special occasions. The main level also includes a dedicated home office—ideal for remote work or quiet study.

The partially finished basement adds even more flexibility, featuring a bar area that’s perfect for game nights, movie marathons, or hosting friends and family. Outside, the amenities truly shine. Enjoy summer days in the 24-foot above-ground pool, complete with surrounding deck and pool house for convenience. The large detached garage includes a workshop space for hobbies, storage, or projects. The impressive 28x36 pole barn with a 14x28 lean-to offers incredible versatility, and the massive loft provides even more usable space. You’ll also find a charming chicken coop and playhouse, adding both function and fun to the property. A whole-house generator provides peace of mind year-round, and the newly stoned driveway offers abundant parking for guests, trailers, or recreational vehicles. The screened-in porch overlooks the front yard and is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the peaceful surroundings. This property is more than just a home—it’s a lifestyle. Private, versatile, and absolutely full of charm, it offers space to relax, entertain, work, and play—all in a beautiful natural setting.
