Perfect for a primary residence, 2nd home or an investment property and currently in a successful vacation rental program, Mountain Spring Cottage offers the ideal blend of rustic cabin and farm house, plus tons of charm and character. A large family room with exposed beams and fireplace greets you as you enter the front door. The chef-at-heart will appreciate the updated eat-in kitchen with SS appliances, solid surface countertops, farm sink, and gas cooktop with exterior vented hood. The kitchen as well as main floor primary suite with marble shower and walk-in closet, open to a massive screened porch spanning the entire rear of the home overlooking the pond.

Enjoy walking trails throughout the property, lighted paths around the pond, a firepit as well as a hot tub overlooking the pond. There are ample expansion areas on the property for RV parking, a garage, tiny home or additional buildings.
