About This Home

Tucked deep within nearly 12 wooded acres across four parcels, this log home in Mount Vernon offers a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship & connection to nature. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, second home, or secluded getaway, this property delivers both peace of mind & peaceful living. Built with hickory logs, this Appalachian-style home showcases timeless construction & thoughtful design. Recent updates—including interior painting throughout & newly refreshed chinking—enhance both the feel & integrity of the home. Inside, over 2,000 sq ft features authentic log walls, exposed beams & warm wood tones. A vaulted ceiling with an open loft above the kitchen & living area adds light & openness, while a wood-burning fireplace, with wood stove, anchors the space. Bamboo floors stained in light oak add richness. Bedrooms are generously sized, with the primary offering a private bath & walk-in closet. Mechanical updates include a newer heat pump, furnace, central A/C & electrical improvements. A full basement provides storage & workspace, & the home is serviced by a spring-fed well. Surrounded by mature woods, the property offers uninterrupted views of wildlife, with a ravine & Armstrong Run adding to the natural setting. A separate Amish-built log cabin (2021) overlooks the ravine & includes a kitchen and living area downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. There is also a small bathroom with commode upstairs, outhouse, propane heat, wood stove, generator hookup & storage—ideal for guests or a private retreat.
