Multiple offers received. Welcome to your peaceful retreat on the Potomac River. This charming log cabin sits on over three private acres, offering a secluded setting perfect for nature lovers. Over the past several years, the home has been thoughtfully updated, blending rustic charm with modern comfort. In 2016, the top floor was fully remodeled with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a custom kitchen featuring high-end appliances, a farmhouse sink, custom cabinetry, and open barnwood shelving. Both bathrooms were upgraded, including a beautifully tiled master shower and a solid wood vanity with a Carrara marble top. The primary bedroom gained a walk-in closet and sliding barn doors crafted from reclaimed wood. Large picture windows were added to the great room, and the mudroom was enhanced with built-in storage. Lighting, fixtures, and insulation were also updated for improved comfort and efficiency. A high-efficiency HVAC system was installed in 2017, along with a modern dark grey exterior stain and a custom front porch railing. In 2020, three-quarters of the walkout basement were finished, adding a bedroom, ensuite bathroom, laundry room, new flooring, and lighting. Electrical upgrades followed in 2022, including a whole-house surge protector and generator hookup. In 2024, a new well pump and an Atlas shingle roof with a transferable 20-year warranty were added. This beautifully upgraded riverside home is offered below appraised value—a rare opportunity to own a private, turnkey getaway.
