Rare is the opportunity to immerse yourself in a storybook setting fit for the likes of wandering creatives & hopeless romantics. Set waterfront in the Lake Norman State Park, this charming log cabin - originally built in 1840 in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and rebuilt on-site log-by-log in 1978 - is truly an intersection of past & present. This history-infused cabin offers modern comforts along with nostalgic amenities like a wood burning fireplace and bedroom loft above the great room. You can truly feel the mountain essence all whilst remaining only 1 hour from center city Charlotte. Enjoy picturesque views of Lake Norman year-round from your twinkle-lit deck or dock - just several meters from the main channel, the dock is on a deep water cove that is told to have been used as a civil war infantry reloading area much before the lake was created. Fully furnished with mindful maintenance performed over recent years, this log home is prime to welcome the next homeowner and guest. The HVAC was replaced in 2022, all appliances and water heater in 2021, partial roof/gutter replacement in 2023, along with some septic and well updates. The lower level has been freshly repainted, and exterior doors have been sanded and finished with protective paint; the efficiencies have been considered for your peace of mind. Light landscaping has been installed, keeping wildlife and low maintenance preferences in mind. Whether you're a homeowner seeking solace from the bustling city life without losing proximity to city comforts, or a savvy investor in the short term rental space, this cabin has just about all you could ask for when it comes to a unique home and experience!
*Please note: 283.1 lower level square feet have 6'8" ceiling height; the gross heated and cooled square footage is 1638.8 square feet, but because the ceiling height in the lower level has non-compliant ceiling heights, it cannot be included in the HLA - the value remains - the rooms with 6'8" ceiling heights are noted in the floor plan sketch*
