If your buyers have been “waiting for the right one,” this is the cabin. From the moment the door opens, there’s a grounded, calming feel...it smells like a real log cabin because it is one. Built with authentic log construction (not veneer) and designed for four-season living, this home delivers the High Country experience people daydream about while stuck in traffic miles away. Step inside to long-range mountain views that instantly steal your attention. The main living space is open, bright, and anchored by a stone propane fireplace that feels built for winter evenings and football weekends. Hardwood floors, natural wood textures, and big windows give the room a cozy-yet-elevated feel. The kitchen blends style and function with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry, just the right balance of mountain charm and everyday convenience. Main-level primary suite? Absolutely...because easy living and a quiet retreat should start on the main floor. A second primary suite sits just off the loft, providing a comfortable and ideal retreat for guests. The loft itself is a bonus retreat for movie nights, puzzles, or a morning coffee ritual above the treetops. Downstairs, the finished lower level flexes to whatever life demands: two additional flex rooms for guests, a hobby hideaway, a quiet home office, or even a personal gym. A full bathroom, garage, and laundry area keep the everyday living smooth and organized. But let’s be honest: you’re here for the view and this property delivers. The fully covered wraparound porch serves year-round as the best seat in the house. Carolina blue skies in the summers, fire-colored falls, snow-globe winters, and spring sunrises, buyers don’t just look at the mountains here…they live with them. Location puts you minutes from West Jefferson, Blue Ridge Parkway, and adventures on the New River (2nd oldest river in the world). A short drive connects you to the best of High Country living: Christmas in July, MerleFest, Apple Festival, fall leaf season, Appalachian State year round events, and world-class hiking/skiing. Whether you want a full-time residence, a retreat from the flatlands, or an investment property (short-term or long-term rental), this cabin checks the boxes buyers always hope to find but rarely do — authentic construction, big views, two primary bedrooms, flexible space, plenty of storage space, furnished convenience, and the kind of atmosphere that feels like a deep breath. Fully furnished (W/MINOR EXCEPTIONS). Tranquil, inviting, and absolutely unforgettable. Walk in once. You'll get it.
