This 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom log cabin sits on just under an acre and offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Enjoy peaceful mornings on the expansive covered front porch that wraps around the side of the home, or unwind in the evenings on the screened-in side porch overlooking the serene, park-like setting. Inside, the open-concept layout showcases beautiful log finishes and a cozy living room centered around a wood-burning stove—perfect for chilly nights. The kitchen features a breakfast bar, a quaint breakfast nook, and direct access to the screened porch, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing with nature. The main level includes a full bathroom, while the open loft upstairs provides a second bedroom and a convenient half bath. The finished walk-out basement offers additional living space, currently used as a second sleeping area with a full bathroom, large closet, and a generous storage room. Step out the glass doors to a second covered patio featuring a large hot tub—your personal oasis! Outside, the property is beautifully landscaped with mature trees and includes an one-car detached garage and a charming log outbuilding for additional storage. Located just 20 minutes from Ocoee whitewater rafting, Copperhill, and Tellico Plains, and about 40 minutes from Blue Ridge and Murphy, NC, this property is perfect as a full-time residence, vacation home, or rental investment. Don't miss this unique opportunity to own a piece of mountain paradise! C
