Historic Restored Log Cabin With Private Waterfall On Acreage

Located between Beech Fork Lake and East Lynn Lake, this 23.29± acre property combines a restored historic log cabin with usable acreage, water features, utility infrastructure, and a mix of open ground and wooded terrain. The property offers approximately 1,940 feet of frontage along Beech Fork Road with convenient proximity to nearby recreational opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts.

Originally constructed in the 1890s, the cabin has undergone substantial interior remodeling and structural improvements over the past year and a half while maintaining much of its original character. The home contains approximately 2,200 square feet with 3 to 4 bedrooms and multiple living spaces arranged across both the original cabin section and later additions.

The main level includes a living room centered around the original stone fireplace, now equipped with a gas insert, along with a bedroom or library area featuring original wood details and built-ins. The oversized kitchen serves as a central gathering space and includes updated stainless appliances and additional room for dining and storage. The main floor also includes a laundry and utility room, a full bathroom with walk-in shower, and access to the covered back porch and fenced backyard area.

The second floor includes a full bathroom with tub and shower, a primary bedroom with private exterior deck access overlooking the wooded acreage, and two additional bedrooms situated within the original cabin section of the home. The layout retains the historic character of the structure while offering updated functionality for modern use.

One of the property’s notable utility features is the availability of free natural gas with no stated usage limits, offering the potential to offset utility expenses depending on buyer usage and system configuration. Additional utilities include public water service, private septic, and an additional water well located on the property.

Outside the home, the property includes a workshop connected through an enclosed breezeway, a fenced backyard area, and a chicken coop with its own enclosed pen. Corrugated metal porch ceilings have been installed throughout the covered porch areas, contributing to the property’s functional outdoor spaces. The west-facing front porch overlooks the field across the road and provides sunset views over the open ground.

The acreage itself offers a balance of open land and timber. Approximately nine acres of relatively flat bottom ground lie west of the road along a wet weather stream. This field area has previously supported crops and livestock and may be suitable for gardening, agricultural use, pasture, or recreational activities, depending on buyer objectives.

Behind the home, the remaining acreage rises into wooded ridge terrain containing a mix of Appalachian hardwoods. Wildlife activity has been observed throughout the property, including deer, turkey, and small game. A seasonal waterfall is also located in sight of the home.

The property layout provides access from multiple sides, creating flexibility for future use, additional structures, recreational access, or privacy. A gravel roadway forms part of the rear property boundary along the ridge.
