Local builder Ed Mackie custom built this authentic log home from Tree Craft log homes, a local company. Full length logs were cut and assembled on site to the owners specs. The current and only owners of this home built it on a small family farm in 1988, over 30 years ago. The sellers father, a cabinet maker from New York came down and built the kitchen cabinets, counters and both bathroom vanities. Over the years the owners have added the 16x32 vinyl lined in ground pool, the decks on the south side of the home which are graced with sunshine, the chicken coop, garden space and the 24x24 detached garage/shop. Once up the private drive, park in the circle drive or in the 2 car carport. You'll enjoy sitting on the full length covered front porch. Inside, you'll notice the vaulted ceilings & openness between the kitchen/dining area. Sit & enjoy the fire in the large living room. Two bedrooms on main w/ another 2 rooms & loft upstairs. Large basement finished and heated with a wood stove.

Then you be taking a right on Davidson rd. You'll be looking for numbered mailbox 190/188 on left but driveway is on the right, Paved drive that says private. After 75 yards, take left at fork towards "Knopp". GPS has a hard time for some reason.
