Tucked away on 1.35 private acres, with rare organic charm, room to roam, and a location that's hard to beat, this charming log cabin is a true hidden gem. Rustic character meets fresh updates throughout some new flooring, newer appliances and fixtures, and a really cool & cozy loft. Step outside to a screened porch with vaulted ceilings, an expansive deck built for entertaining, and a fully fenced backyard with a treehouse, a paved half-court for hoops, and a fire pit made for gathering under the stars. Mature landscaping wraps the whole property in privacy. A detached 440 sq. ft. heated and cooled bonus building (not included in home square footage) w full bath and laundry room adds flexible space for a home office, studio, gym, or guest retreat.

West Suburban Winston-Salem, located between Hanes Mall Boulevard and the Silas Creek Parkway corridor, is a residential and commercial Winston-Salem neighborhood with mid-century subdivisions and retail corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Stratford Road and Hanes Mall Boulevard junction, where big-box storefronts, local eateries, and steady traffic set a practical, errands-first rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward ranch homes, split-levels, and newer townhome pockets along curving streets and cul-de-sacs. Recreation and green space orbit nearby at Tanglewood Park and the Muddy Creek Greenway. Cultural pillars in the wider west-side orbit include SECCA (Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art) and the Reynolda House Museum of American Art. Daily life centers on shopping runs, fitness studios, and car-friendly routes to the rest of the city.
