Tucked away in the heart of highly sought-after Douglasville, this rare gem is a true unicorn-a genuine log cabin, a style nearly impossible to find outside the mountains, now available in one of metro Atlanta's most desirable areas! This freshly updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom beauty boasts a spacious master on main, soaring two-story living room with a breathtaking stone wood-burning fireplace, and an upstairs loft that overlooks the entire space, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. You'll fall in love with the rustic charm blended seamlessly with modern updates: a gorgeous brick-lined kitchen with brand-new granite countertops, new LVP flooring on the main level, and refinished hardwoods upstairs. All appliances stay, making this move-in ready from day one. Step outside and you'll swear you've driven to the mountains-the stunning long gravel driveway winds through a private, wooded 1-acre lot, leading to your peaceful retreat. The expansive fenced backyard is perfect for pets, playsets, and backyard dreams, all without the burden of an HOA or rental restrictions-ideal for either a forever home or an income-generating rental. This property is dripping with character, privacy, and that hard-to-find cabin charm right in Douglasville. Don't wait-homes like this simply don't come along often and it will go fast! Property is sold as-is, where-is, with no disclosures, and all due diligence must be completed before submitting an offer. A home warranty up to $500 is available with an accepted offer-act now to make this one-of-a-kind property yours!
