Check out this hidden gem — cute enough to be a private retreat, and with property big enough for all your dreams! Tucked away in the stunning Row River Valley, this rustic 468 SF cabin (with extra loft space) is a total charmer, situated in a grove of fir trees with a wide front porch that is only missing a rocking chair and you. Custom built in 2012 and with brand new Milgard windows in 2025, this home is the perfect getaway - the wood stove provides cozy heat, and there’s plenty of room to stretch out and explore on just over 21 sprawling acres. The land is prime bottom land soil with great solar exposure, so you could grow anything your heart desires! Just 16 miles from Cottage Grove and close to Dorena Lake, this home exudes peace and tranquility. And the cabin is just the beginning - there’s so much more to love! The "Fire Department" is fitted with a 4,000-gallon tank, fire pump, and fire hoses (talk about peace of mind), there is a 170 SF studio complete with solar lighting, propane heat, a sink, a deck and windows that’s perfect for an office or workshop, a solar-powered well with its own well-house, and a shipping container turned tractor shed. Other highlights include public water, underground electric and an oversized septic system designed for a 3-bedroom 2-bath home. Plus a private, gated drive that maintains your privacy. The Oregon State Covered Bridges Scenic Bikeway Trail runs nearby for those morning bike rides. With land use laws getting tighter every year, a property like this is a rare and special find. Call your agent to schedule a showing — it’s too gorgeous to miss!
