Escape to Your Private Mountain Oasis – 4BR/3BA Log Cabin on 5.78 Acres with Waterfalls & Lake Access Welcome to your dream retreat nestled on 5.78 pristine acres that adjoin the protected Corp of Engineers property, offering direct access to Carters Lake right from your backyard. This stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom custom log cabin is a rare find, blending rustic charm with modern upgrades and natural beauty at every turn. A gently sloped walking trail meanders from the home to your very own private waterfalls—a truly serene and magical setting. Great for a peaceful full-time residence or a luxury mountain getaway or rental investment, fully furnished. Inside, the spacious great room features soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and a gorgeous stone fireplace with gas logs—perfect for cozy evenings. The kitchen is a chef's delight with recently updated stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and ample storage space. The master suite on the main level includes a luxurious walk-in stone tile shower, custom cabinetry, and a large walk-in closet. A bonus loft off the master offers flexibility as an office, reading nook, or additional closet space. Two more guest bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level. Upstairs, a loft area serves as a 5th sleeping space, craft room, or zen meditation area. The terrace level is built for entertaining, with a second stone fireplace, wet bar, pool table, and a 4th bedroom and full bath—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Step outside to the covered deck with a hot tub and soak in the peace and quiet under the stars. The exterior features a full-length covered front porch, open grilling deck, new engineer-approved retaining wall, fenced backyard, and a separate storage/potting shed. A rope path leads to your own creek, and the brand-new septic system offers peace of mind. Don't miss this one-of-a-kind mountain haven with lake access, waterfalls, and unforgettable charm.
