Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this cabin is significantly dated but appears functional and well-maintained for its age. The kitchen shows partial updates including newer stone countertops and a modern faucet, but the cabinetry, wood paneling, and lack of central HVAC (relying on a wood stove) indicate a need for system and cosmetic modernization. It remains move-in ready as a rustic retreat rather than a full rehab.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10454, living area = 1028.
The property features a spacious 10,454 sqft fenced lot with a deck, carport, and two storage sheds, offering exceptional privacy and utility for mountain living.
While listed as a two-bedroom, the inclusion of a den provides flexible space for a third bedroom or home office, maximizing the utility of the 1,028 sqft layout.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1028, other record living area = 583.
