Quaint log cabin in the heart of Kenilworth originally used as the post office & jail it is now a historic residence. Many updates include central heat & air, metal roof preserving the original charm. Granite fireplace, log walls, vaulted ceilings, wood floors. Detached studio, shop and garage are great for home office , plenty of storage. I do not believe the property will conventionally fund, as with all old log cabins it is a work in progress

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT OVERLAY
Residential Single-Family High Density District
It is the intent of the RS-8 Residential Single-Family High Density District to establish a high density per acre for single-family dwellings where public infrastructure is sufficient to support such development and to stabilize and protect the district's residential character in areas of existing high density single-family development while promoting a suitable environment for single-family living. Non-single-family development normally required to provide the basic elements of a balanced and attractive residential area is also permitted.
Directions: Biltmore Ave past the Hospital to a left on Caledonia, first left on Castle, home is on the right, corner lot across from the Residences at Biltmore.
