Tired of cookie-cutter homes so close together that you can reach out and touch your neighbors? Do you want privacy and to be able to live the good life without your HOA telling you what you can and can't do at your own home? Look no further!! Welcome to 506 Burgess Rd. — a beautiful cabin retreat tucked away on over 3 acres of peaceful, wooded privacy only 2 miles from Jordan Lake. No subdivision. No HOA. This isn't just a home — it's a retreat with plenty of space to do your own thing. Start a garden, build a chicken coop, set up a zipline, or finally get that goat you've always wanted. You're in the driver's seat out here. Inside this 3-bedroom home that lives like a 4-bedroom, you'll find a cozy A-frame vibe with vaulted wood ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. Step outside onto the wrap-around deck overlooking a wooded backdrop. The layout is refreshingly different — Have you ever dreamed of living in a treehouse? Here is your chance. .. This is like a grown-up version of a treehouse. Also on the property is a 30' x 60' insulated steel building with electricity, a concrete pad, water, drainage, and ventilation. Are you a car buff? You could park 30 in here. Are you a woodworker? More space than you would ever need. Need a place to store extra stuff? I would be impressed if you could fill it. Do you want to feel like you're a million miles away from everything, living the lake life but still only 15 minutes from shopping and amenities? You've found your sweet spot. Whether you're a nature lover, artist, introvert, or someone just done with the grind of suburban sameness, this home is ready for your personal touches. Land is finite, and especially land so close to Jordan Lake. Don't miss out on this secluded gem.
