Description

Welcome to this exceptional rough-hewn log cabin on a little over one acre, just minutes from downtown Murphy and the beautiful Valley River. This FULLY FURNISHED, two- level mountain home offers 2 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 2-car garage, two full-length porches, a detached carport, and distant long-range MOUNTAIN VIEWS. Enter through a beveled glass door into the inviting Great Room, where exposed beams, floor-to-ceiling knotty pine, vaulted ceilings, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace create a warm chalet atmosphere. Double doors with integrated blinds open to the expansive porch, bringing the outdoors in from nearly every seat in the living and dining areas. Four large chalet windows with vertical blinds add natural light and temperature control. The well-appointed kitchen features abundant cabinetry, lazy Susans for convenient storage, granite countertops, and a complete black appliance package. A walk-in pantry, guest bath, and laundry closet are conveniently located nearby. The unique Master Suite is just off the Great Room with an adjoining multipurpose area that has spectacular views, a huge walk-in closet, and a private bath with a single-sink vanity, etched-glass shower doors, and separate jetted garden tub. Split for privacy, the guest bedroom is located across the Great Room, with double doors opening to the porch. The porch is an entertainer's dream, featuring panoramic views, outdoor furnishings, and a hand-carved, antique-style Asian-themed bar complete with keg and wine storage. Downstairs, the lower level offers a large finished bonus room, full bath, storage, and access to the oversized 2-car garage with generous hobby and storage space. Outside, a detached carport and additional metal storage building provide for even more utility storage. Fully furnished, rich with rustic character and breathtaking views, this mountain home is ready to enjoy and be loved.. If home is where the heart is...this home is beating for you.
