Property Description
Step into a property where the home and the land tell the same story. This distinctive cedar log home offers an eclectic blend of natural materials, craftsmanship, and old-world character, with wood used throughout the home that was harvested right from the land on which the home sits. From the wood walls to the floors and the thoughtfully incorporated reclaimed metal accents, every room offers something unique to discover. Even the boulders found on the property are arranged for landscaping and stairs in the craftsman tradition.
One of the home's most remarkable features is the hackberry wood flooring on the main level, cured for over a decade. The variety of wood species throughout the home creates a warm, one-of-a-kind atmosphere that simply cannot be replicated with today's mass-produced materials.
For anyone dreaming of a homesteading lifestyle, this property is already well on its way. The established orchard features apple trees, cherry trees, plum trees, and crabapples, providing the foundation for homegrown fruit and future harvests. Maple trees on the property have been tapped for maple syrup. A greenhouse offers space to grow vegetables, while a chicken coop is already in place for those looking to raise their own poultry, adding another layer to the property's self-sufficient character.
The Heart of the Lakes Bike Trail runs directly in front of the property, providing easy access to miles of recreational opportunities. Upstairs, a finished attic adds a touch of whimsy and adventure. With enough room to accommodate a king-sized bed, it creates a fun hideaway for children, grandchildren, guests, or anyone who wants their own cozy retreat tucked away above the main living spaces.
This isn't a cookie-cutter property. It's a home for someone who appreciates character over conformity, craftsmanship over mass production, and living closer to the land. This property offers the rare opportunity to step into a homesteading lifestyle that has already begun.
