Private mountain lodge — without the long drive — this authentic cypress log retreat delivers craftsmanship, comfort, and character in a setting designed to slow life down and bring people together. This is a true log home, custom built from 100-year cypress logs (not siding or veneer), professionally treated for exceptional durability, longevity, and low maintenance — offering rare peace of mind and a level of craftsmanship that is increasingly difficult to replicate. Set at the end of a long paved drive on private acreage, the home spans three expansive levels (each approximately 30’ x 60’) and is rich with exposed beams, warm wood textures, and timeless lodge character throughout. The main living level flows effortlessly from the kitchen into an inviting living space anchored by a pellet stove, creating a natural gathering point for everyday living and special occasions alike. Flexible spaces accommodate work-from-home needs, hobbies, or guests, while thoughtfully designed bedrooms and baths provide comfort and privacy. Upstairs, loft-style bedrooms connected by a charming interior bridge create a memorable retreat that feels straight out of a storybook. Beyond the traditional “on-paper” square footage, the home offers substantial additional space under roof, providing exceptional functionality, storage, and versatility that buyers will truly appreciate once they see it in person. The lower level is designed for both fun and function, featuring a two-car garage, laundry area, a wood-burning furnace integrated into the central system, and a custom bar ideal for game days and gatherings. Energy efficiency is a standout feature. Heavy log construction combined with R-110 roof insulation keeps the home impressively warm in winter, comfortably cool in summer, and efficient year-round — resulting in a cozy interior and lower utility costs. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. A massive full-length front porch overlooks a recreation-ready front yard with a horseshoe court and stone wood-burning grill/cookstove — the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying frequent wildlife visits, including deer that often gather near the firepit. A private rear porch, additional deck space, and natural surroundings complete the experience. The detached shop/garage is a rare bonus, featuring two separate work bays, a vehicle hoist, built-in air compressor, and the ability to connect a wood stove or furnace — ideal for car enthusiasts, craftsmen, or serious hobbyists. Additional storage buildings, ample parking, and a driveway camera/sensor system provide convenience, security, and peace of mind. This is not a mass-produced home — it is a thoughtfully designed, owner-built retreat offering authenticity, efficiency, flexibility, and lifestyle. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, private escape, or distinctive investment opportunity (buyer to verify), homes with this level of character and craftsmanship are truly rare. Schedule your private tour and experience it for yourself.
