About This Home

A lovely and rare find, this log cabin is an established short-term rental with two units (one bedroom, one bath each) and two kitchens. Enjoy the outdoors and peaceful country living, the stress floating away as you enjoy the beautiful view approach to this property. True Log cabin with vaulted ceilings.

Low maintenance; has a newer metal roof. Great income producer—or simply enjoy it as your primary residence. The acre-plus corner lot has potential to subdivide (buyer to confirm).

Two fenced yards are great for pets and play! Relax on the double wraparound decks and a fire pit area. Turnkey and move-in ready—or start booking Airbnb stays immediately.

Located only 25 minutes to downtown Asheville and 15 minutes to West Asheville.
