Please don't show up at this home without an appointment! This charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath log cabin with a bonus room sits on over 12 private, unrestricted acres. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with gated access and no HOA fees or restrictions. The property boasts stunning mountain views looking into the national park, with potential for enhancement through tree trimming. Relax to the sounds of a bold creek that you’ll own right from your cabin. There’s also a cleared lot with a small barn/tractor shed, offering the potential to build additional homes if desired. The cabin features a whole-house generator, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a 2-car garage in the basement equipped with a wood stove. The kitchen and baths have been updated, and a new roof was installed in 2023. This home has too many extras to list and provides easy paved access to nearby golf courses, Bryson City, Cherokee, all the little mountain towns and lakes, and the national park. It’s well maintained and thoughtfully cared for—truly a must-see! This will make a great year-round home, family compound, or investment property.
