The cutest Lincoln Log cabin you ever did see. Every detail meticulously thought out. There are decks and bridges and arbors and play houses or garden sheds. This is a real Lincoln Log hand hewn log home with massive log beams across the whole ceiling. The way this was built you would think that you were miles out in the wilderness yet you are only blocks from the center of Chester. Huge great room and a loft that could be used as a third bedroom, walk-in closet in the very spacious Master bedroom upstairs, pantry, large laundry room, log railing around a party sized deck plus wood walkways to the back overlooking a beautiful greenbelt area, central heating and pellet stove for warm winters, central vacuuming system, 23'x 43' garage with a 12'x 23' two room workshop/hobby/craft/art studio. All the log furniture in the house and garage stay with this perfect get away log cabin or permanent resident. Easy access to town by walking bike or car. When you drive by it always catches my attention, on the absolute best and largest lot along the greenbelt. Likely won't last long so come take a look before it is too late.
