Unique Log Cabin for Sale

“He writes, thoughts filling pages, pleasant distractions — the views, the woods, the wildlife, her feet padding cross the smooth pine floors below.”

 On 6.12 very private acres, there is a quiet here like no other. As if designed by nature, this custom log home blends beautifully with the landscape. Calling in the views, there are decks 10’ wide, wrapping a full half of the house. A soak in the hot tub beckons – watch the fireflies.

A few of the included amenities of this unique log cabin: a tree-beamed greatroom open to a roomy kitchen with reclaimed barn-wood cabinetry; rhododendron railings and accents; windows everywhere, glass doors leading to the deck; a main-level master bedroom with ensuite bath; large loft with adjoining 2nd master bedroom suite; and a full lower-level 1-2 bedroom suite with separate entrance.

This is a Jim Barna log cabin that was constructed (2004-05) with 8-inch pine ‘D’ logs-round on the outside and flat on the inside, with tongue and groove fittings between the logs (no chinking). It has central air and is heated with a propane furnace.

Designed for environmental sustainability, the foundation of this unique log cabin is constructed of Superior Walls, a precast concrete system providing for an ultra-dry basement, and aiding in energy conservation. The roof is covered with 30-year architectural shingles.

Located near the quaint town of Mars Hill,  home of Mars Hill University, offering events including plays and music.  The university has an excellent Olympic-sized, indoor pool and tennis courts that are available for public use.  Eat at Stackhouse, serving local beers and enormous burgers — you’ll definitely visit over and over!

You’ll find this unique log home, just 5 minutes from Mars Hill, and an easy 26 minutes from downtown Asheville, NC. This unique property was featured in The Asheville Citizen-Times “Home of the Week” section.
