Are you ready to live more deliberately? Escape to the woods with this stunning log home aside a private pond on 20 secluded acres bordering over 100 acres of national forest. This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom log home exudes warmth, craftsmanship, and artistry. The almost 3000 square feet of living space is rich with custom finishes: classic log beams, recycled glass counter top with inset knife holder, commissioned murals, walk-in shower, farmhouse sink, wine cooler, and more. Sit in the shade of the porch and watch deer drink from the pond. Cook pizza in the wood fired oven on the patio. Explore the forest trails. Plant in the raised garden beds. Rinse off in the outdoor shower before retreating to the sunroom to revel in the evening woodland glow. Life is waiting for you at 53 W. Wilke Road.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
