Check out this unique true log cabin in Athens that is on the Middle Oconee River! Located within the established Forest Heights subdivision. Full of character and a rare find in this neighborhood. The home sits up on pillars/stilts, so you feel like you are in the mountains even though it's right near the middle of everything Athens has to offer. The inside features beautiful pine floors in an open concept layout, showcasing exposed wooden ceiling, a cozy stone fireplace(never been used), and windows that bring in natural light into the living spaces. Vaulted ceiling in the living/dining/kitchen area that goes up to 12 feet tall. The spacious bedrooms offer a peaceful sanctuary for relaxation. Outdoors, the property offers a front porch that spans 40 feet across the home and is 6 ft wide. The back includes a completed screened in porch that spans 29 ft x 8 ft wide! You could use this as a secondary outdoor dining area or to watch the beauty of the outdoors, or even as a third bedroom with a hammock! Don't forget this wooded backyard fronts the Middle Oconee River! Covered parking because the house is on stilts means you get to park underneath. Don't miss the opportunity to own this cozy home that combines the timeless allure of a rustic cabin built in 2014, and comes with comforts of modern living, just a couple minutes from Downtown Athens.
