About This Home
This mountain cabin is ideal for buyers/INVESTORS seeking a private escape they can enjoy personally and successfully operate as a vacation rental when not in use. A beautifully maintained log cabin that offers the perfect balance of lifestyle and income potential. Over the past few years, the property has demonstrated good net short-term rental performance, as the last two years need to be Annualized since 4th qtr of 2024 and 1st qtr of 2025 were not viable due to unique/extraordinary circumstances encountered during Helene ravaging WNC. It is currently priced below the last appraisal where the Appraiser unfortunately reconciled only Sales Comparison data but failed to incorporate the Income Approach, unintentionally creating an attractive opportunity for any true market value-focused buyers. Thoughtfully refurbished, this cozy and romantic 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath log cabin blends authentic mountain charm with modern updates. It has a proven track record as an income-producing STR while remaining an inviting retreat for any owners who want a place to unwind in the western NC mountains. The setting is private, serene, and immersive—ideal for unplugging. Spend evenings under dark, star-filled skies, enjoy crisp mountain nights before a genuine stone fireplace, or relax in the larger (newer) hot tub after a day of exploring. On rainy days, the classic red metal roof provides a peaceful soundtrack that enhances the cabin’s rustic character. It may be totally furnished and turn-key, if buyer(s0 desire... Location is a standout feature. The cabin is just minutes from Lake Lure and Chimney Rock and within an easy, scenic drive to downtown Asheville, Black Mountain, Hendersonville, and Tryon.
