About This Home

Tucked away in a peaceful valley setting, this 23.4-acre property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, recreational appeal, and income potential. A year-round spring-fed creek winds through the mostly wooded land, creating a serene backdrop that feels miles from everything--yet is conveniently accessible from I-59. The mix of timber, water, and seclusion provides excellent habitat, making this an ideal property for hunters, with abundant deer and turkey regularly seen on the land. Built in 2025, the 1,000 sq ft cabin is thoughtfully designed with rustic character and modern comfort, featuring heart pine walls, white oak laminated floors, a wood-burning fireplace, covered porches, and a loft space ideal for additional sleeping, office, or flex use. The main level includes a bedroom, full bath, and dedicated laundry room. Low-maintenance metal roofing and siding add long-term durability. Currently operating as a short-term rental, the property offers potential income with significant room to expand. Multiple potential build sites, accessible power, and ample acreage make it ideal for adding additional cabins or creating a boutique retreat destination. The existing 1,000-gallon filtered rainwater system and nearby natural spring enhance its off-grid appeal--an increasingly sought-after feature among today's buyers and guests. Whether you're searching for a private hunting retreat, a full-time residence, or an investment property with growth potential, this unique offering delivers flexibility, seclusion, and opportunity in one compelling package.
