This rare waterfront home offers exceptional privacy with a gated entry, no HOA, and light deed restrictions, all protected by a durable new metal roof overhead. A private circle drive welcomes you to the main house, featuring a classic log cabin exterior and an inviting covered front porch. Inside, the thoroughly upgraded interior boasts an open floor plan bathed in natural light from massive windows, highlighted by striking vaulted knotty pine beam ceilings in the dining, kitchen and main level bedrooms. The modernized kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring a stunning waterfall countertop and a center island breakfast bar that opens seamlessly to a spacious sunroom with a dedicated laundry area at the far end. The main level includes two comfortable bedrooms sharing a full bath, plus a convenient half bath for guests. Upstairs, a versatile sitting area opens to a private balcony and leads to two additional bedrooms and a full bath with dual vanities and an extended walk-in shower. A bonus upper-level loft, reached via the second floor, offers dramatic, elevated views of the surrounding natural landscape. Adding incredible value is a separate, fully equipped 750-square-foot one-bedroom studio log cabin complete with a full bath, knotty pine vaulted ceilings, full kitchen, and a stone accent wall with an eating counter—perfect for guests, multi-generational living, or an income-producing rental.
