    THIS PROPERTY IS GOING TO AUCTION ON WEDNESDAY JUNE 4, 2025 @ 6:00 PM. THE LIST PRICE ONLY REFLECTS THE SUGGESTED STARTING BID. Completely renovated "Log Cabin" style house while keeping all its history charm including a 3-year old addition integrated into the same time period. It feels like a museum but includes all the current comforts to make it more day-to-day friendly. The original part of the house was built between 1790-1800 with a later kitchen addition and third spacious addition in 2022, it's like stepping back in time. Kitchen/dining cabinetry incorporated old cupboards and wooden boxes to fit the time period, includes all stainless steel appliances. 2022 great room addition is post/beam construction, fireplace mantle, 15' cathedral ceilings, powder bathroom, adjoining room with remarkable walk-in original stone fireplace, living room with log walls, laundry room with sink. Inviting front and rear covered porches, 20' x 6' rear concrete patio. Second level has 3 bedrooms, landing area, primary 11.5' x 9' walk-in closet, full bathroom with shower.
