An extremely rare historic log cabin on one of the widest and calmest areas of the James River in our area, this home has some of the most beautiful views you will find anywhere. The story goes that this home is compromised of two historic cabins that sat across the river and were moved when the railroad was built. Expanded over time and with all the modern updates you're looking for, this home is easy to love featuring: New heat pump Oct 21, solar panels, new well this year, floor to ceiling windows as well as the historic character of wide heart pine floors, exposed log construction, skylights and much much more. The wrap around deck with expansive views of the river make you want to spend as much time outside as in. Step directly into the river with dock access and steps. This home was used partially as an air bnb and sellers are willing to include most of furniture, linens, rugs and accessories if the buyers are interested. You will not find a more unique property!
