Welcome to 461 Apple Valley Road — a beautifully restored true log cabin tucked into a serene mountain oasis. This property combines rustic charm with modern comfort, featuring original pine wood floors, brand-new stainless steel appliances, updated bathrooms, and fresh paint throughout. A freestanding wood stove anchors the living space, while freshly stained logs and decks highlight the home’s timeless character. With multiple sleeping areas, the cabin easily accommodates 12+ guests, and the unfinished basement offers even more potential to expand. Recent improvements include a five-year-old roof and meticulous exterior maintenance, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. Outside, wildlife abounds in this gated community, with serene mountain views all around. An adjacent one-acre buildable lot conveys, offering the opportunity to create even longer-range views or additional structures. Buyers may also inquire about a small cabin below the property, currently owned by the broker, which could serve as a guest house. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, a secondary mountain retreat, or a profitable vacation rental, 461 Apple Valley Road offers versatility and opportunity.
