Property Description
Set on 3.8 peaceful acres, this 3-bed, 2-bath log cabin is the kind of property you truly have to experience in person. A generational family home, it carries a warmth and character that instantly makes you feel welcome. Not your typical log cabin, inside you'll find 2,400 sq ft of impeccably maintained living space blending rustic charm with classic comfort. The setting is wonderfully private while the agricultural zoning and generous acreage unlock incredible possibilities: envision a family compound, a future build on the open land with the existing cabin as a guest house, space for animals, a dream workshop, or even a quiet home office. There's room here to live creatively and expansively. You're only minutes from everything you need-recreation, shopping, and restaurants. Even better, the lake greenway system is just a short distance away. It's rare to find a home with this much heart, land, and potential, all wrapped into one. A truly unique offering-and an absolute must-see.
