Property Description

Escape to your own private retreat with this exceptional wilderness log home located in a desirable gated community, meticulously maintained by only its second owner. Nestled on five beautifully wooded lots totaling approximately 3 acres, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of rustic elegance, privacy, and modern comfort. Launch your kayak right from your own backyard and paddle the scenic creek directly into an 88-acre stocked lake. Featuring 5+ bedrooms (including 2 spacious primary suites), and 3.5 bathrooms; this home is ideal for multi-generational living or hosting family and guests. The breathtaking great room showcases the beauty of authentic log construction with soaring vaulted wood ceilings and a dramatic two-story stone fireplace that serves as the heart of the home. The thoughtfully designed floor plan includes a main-floor primary suite and a finished walkout lower level with 9-foot ceilings, a spacious family room with a second fireplace, a dedicated office, and an acoustic theater room-offering exceptional space for work, entertainment, and relaxation. Built with 2x6 construction, the home features log walls on both the interior & exterior creating impressive 14 inch thick walls that provide exceptional strength and energy efficiency. The logs were professionally inspected and freshly stained in May 2026, preserving the home's beauty and integrity for years to come. Outside, professionally landscaped grounds feature native plantings and impressive stone retaining walls that blend seamlessly into the surrounding wilderness. The roof is only 4-5 years old, adding even more value and peace of mind. If you've been dreaming of a private log home surrounded by nature without sacrificing space, quality, or modern amenities, this extraordinary property is a rare opportunity to experience the serenity of waterfront living that you won't want to miss.
