Property Description
Bring an offer and bring along your horse, llamas, goats or donkey to this genuine log cabin on 2.55 fenced acres with a two-stall run-in shed!  Sporting a new roof (2025), this log cabin and its property has so much to offer!  It's level, fenced, and features include a large, masonry fireplace, a double-car garage, and an encapsulated crawl space.   Looking for a mini-farm, or a place for your palomino?  This quiet location may be perfect!  Recently re-roofed and re-stained, this well-maintained log cabin will leave you time to tend to your furry friends.  Located within a gated community, your grazing animals and household pets are welcome.  Until recently, this gentle property has been used for one horse, and it's still set up for it, if you like, with the run-in sitting on a dry lot with underlayment.  Not only could it be used for a horse immediately, other grazing animals are welcome in the community (sheep, goats, llamas, etc). With two separate, fenced pastures for rotational grazing, the property could also be tilled to create a mini-farm, or even converted to a beautiful estate.  Sit on the porch, enjoy the pleasing view, and when you step inside, the massive, vaulted ceiling and stone-faced fireplace makes an excellent first impression.  (The floor-to-ceiling fireplace is 'old-school' masonry, not the metal box inserts so commonly used today.)  An abundance of natural lighting illuminates the home which immediately feels warm and welcoming.  The split floor plan places the primary bedroom, walk-in closet and en suite on one side of the great room, while another two bedrooms and a full bath (with an antique clawfoot tub!) are located on the other side, behind a sliding 'barn door'.  A mud room/laundry area lead you to the oversized garage, plus, this home offers features you won't readily notice, but add considerable value - like having an encapsulated crawl space, and a transfer switch for connecting a generator.  You'll discover the outbuilding and run-in shed both have electric service, and as mentioned, the roof is brand new, and the recent re-staining included pest deterrent additives.  The current fencing includes t-posts with electrabraid, split rail with mesh, and standard electric fencing. If you have no need of the t-posts/electrabraid fencing, the seller will remove it.
