Escape to the mountains with this spacious cabin offering nearly 2,000 square feet of comfortable living space plus a full basement on 5.72 private acres. Though it's just a short distance from the community entrance you will enjoy long-range mountain views stretching as far as Crowders Mountain while relaxing on the expansive wraparound deck that surrounds the main level—perfect for entertaining or simply taking in the peaceful setting. Inside, the home features a spacious kitchen with a breakfast bar that opens to the main living area, creating a welcoming space for gathering with family and friends. Storage is abundant throughout the home, providing plenty of room for organization and hobbies. The partially finished basement adds incredible versatility, serving as a garage while also offering heated and cooled space that includes a dedicated office or craft room and an exceptional wood shop complete with a dust collection system—ideal for woodworking enthusiasts or anyone needing a serious workshop area. The cabin exterior was freshly stained in August 2025, and wood bee treatment is in place through December, offering added protection and peace of mind. With privacy, usable acreage, and stunning mountain views, this unique property combines mountain charm with practical space for work, hobbies, and everyday living.
