About This Home

TIME CAPSULE!! Rare, historic, hand hewn and chinking (1800's per seller) log cabin nestled on the South Toe River, that flows from Mt. Mitchell, highest mountain peak, east of the Mississippi River.

This romantic log cabin was originally living off of Hwy 80 S, where the Laurel Heights community is. The history is, that it was a resting place for weary travelers to lodge overnight(per sellers and the info they have gathered, no documentation). It was moved(disassembled) in 1984, and reassembled, where its home is now, with over 1,000 feet of riverfront.

The present owners has made many improvements assuring stability, with engineered, 200 cubic yards of concrete, metal roof, rustic beams, esthetic decorative wrought iron railings, with about 800 sq. ft of covered outdoor living/entertaining. It encompasses spacious 2 bedrooms, one with a wood stove, both have vaulted ceilings with beams, and wood floors.

One and a half bath with claw ft. tub/shower, open style kitchen/dining with country brick floors. Generous living room with wood burning stove, and foyer, all viewing the river from both levels.

Storage room with laundry on main level, outside of entrance door. Underneath is a large bonus area for outdoor entertaining, and river access for fishing, tubing, kayaking, or just absorbing nature in the serene riverside valley. The road is a quiet country road less traveled.

This unique log cabin is a eccentric find for your paradise summer getaway or short term rental! Minimal damage from the storm and is now restored. The kitchen cabinets is a blank canvas, for your artistic touch.

Possible studio apartment where shed is. Comes with furnishings and decor!
