About this home

This stunning Appalachian dove tail log cabin is a true gem! Privately situated on 1.48+/- acres, the a large flat backyard for play or entertaining. Inside, you’ll be greeted by soaring cathedral tongue-and-groove ceilings and wide-planked hardwood floors that set the tone for rustic elegance. The open living, dining, and kitchen area is anchored by a striking stone wood-burning fireplace — the perfect gathering spot on cool mountain evenings. The main level features two generously sized bedrooms, while a third bedroom upstairs offers extra flexibility for guests or family. The finished basement expands your living space with a large recreation room, home office, laundry area and flex room, ideal for working from home or hosting extended stays. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a welcoming front porch, a large back deck, and a gorgeous screened-in side porch that allows you to enjoy the fresh mountain air year-round. Located just minutes from both Sylva and Franklin, you’ll be perfectly positioned to take advantage of the area’s best hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing. This property is a dream for both adventurers and those seeking a slower pace of life.
