Some Homes simply cannot be duplicated - THIS is one of them. Custom-built by the original owners, this remarkable log home is filled with craftsmanship, character, and stories around every corner. From the moment you arrive, you will appreciate the care and creativity that went into designing a home that is as unique as the setting itself. Nestled on 5+ acres along a hard-surfaced road, the property offers peaceful country living, beautiful views, and a setting that feels like a retreat from the everyday hustle. Inside, the home features 2 bedrooms (including 1 non-conforming), 2 bathrooms, and a loft that offers the potential for a 3rd bedroom complete with an ensuite bath. Warm and inviting living spaces showcase a wood-burning fireplace (which is also plumbed for gas), custom kitchen cabinetry with pull-out drawers, a walk-in closet in the primary bedroom, and a classic clawfoot tub in the walk-through bathroom. Unique blacksmith-forged details can be found throughout the home, from custom stair spindles and curtain rods to the decorative antelope silhouettes by the fireplace. Even the staircase tells a story, featuring spindles crafted from Christmas tree trunks. Outside, the wraparound porch is supported by skip-peeled logs harvested from the property's own grove, while Swedish cope logs add timeless beauty and authenticity to the home's design. You will find additional value and opportunity with a wind turbine easement providing income for the next 14 years. Outbuildings include a 34' x 40' crib, a 24' x 36' former swine finish-to-farrow building, and a 24' x 60' machine shed with approximately half of the building insulated. Properties like this rarely come to market. If you have been searching for a home with character, craftsmanship, and a story to tell, this is one you will want to experience in person.
