Searching for simpler times and that re-connection to our precious earth - this off-grid, yet accessible cabin is idyllically situated on the banks of the Shelldrake River. Encompassing 20 acres on both sides of the river, this gem provides the wilderness experience with the amenities of home. Post and Beam Construction - the interior features a rough pine floor treated with linseed oil, knotty pine ceiling and rough cedar walls. Beautifully and eclectically furnished and decorated, this charmer is offered turn-key less personal exceptions. The gaslights remain operational but newer Solar panels, inverter, and batteries power the home. Recently plumbed, tankless hot water heater and pump provide the important creature comforts. Recreational/photographable opportunity at your doorstep.
