Quaint, private, octagonal shaped chalet nestled in the woods on 5.69 private acres. The land is level, gently sloping and rolling woodlands filled with mature hardwoods with an area already cleared for a fire pit. This cabin had a ruptured water pipe, so all sheetrock, insulation, etc. on the interior has been removed down to the studs and plywood floors. The loft has plenty of room to add an additional bedroom and bathroom. The exterior is in excellent condition. Roof, gutters, and exterior paint on wood siding is only 3 years old. This cabin has great bones and is waiting for the right buyer to add their finishing touches and make it sparkle once again. This cabin is only about 15 miles to town.
