Owner's description and comments on this beautiful property are as follows: The Illusion of seclusion! At the end of a private quarter mile gated driveway, this cozy cabin sits in a peaceful hollow and yet it is just 5 miles to the Mountain Parkway. Marcum and Wallace Hospital is only 6 miles and the towns of Richmond, Mt Sterling, and Winchester are a mere 30 minute commute with Lexington being a tad further. Enjoy a vacation getaway that never ends! Lounge by the pool in the summer, watch the changing of the leaves from your front porch in the fall while the gentle brook babbles a calming tune, and cuddle by the fireplace in the winter. There's plenty of room for visiting friend's and family and let's not forget critter's. Three fenced in areas allow for small livestock management. A chicken coop provides a safe environment for friendly fowl. Updates include: furnace 2019, septic 2020, pool liner 2020, walk in cooler 2020, gutter/drainage 2021, fire place insert 2021, water heater 12.2021, stove/range 2022. Counter tops in process of being replaced.

Have your weekend getaway every day! Only 40 minutes from Hamburg in Lexington and 20 minutes from Red River Gorge this beautiful log home on 23 acres is absolutely fantastic. Enjoy floating in the pool or sitting on the massive front porch completely surrounded by woods and enjoy the peace and quiet! Spend the winter days sitting in front of the stone fireplace watching the deer and turkey play out the window in the front pasture. Bring the horses too. The 48 X 40 barn has a tack room, stalls, and hay loft. Nice sized bedrooms and beautiful wood interior makes this home feel like you're always on vacation. There is an additional 1800+ square feet that could easily be finished. You must see this home to appreciate it!
