Set on 8 beautifully manicured acres bordered by 52 acres of mature woods, the property slopes to the east, providing panoramic sunrise views over a sea of mountains. A stone walkway leads to the cabin, constructed of hand-hewn chestnut logs set on a stone foundation, surrounded by a profusion of flowers in beds and window boxes. The covered front porch, in addition to being a welcoming entry, is a shady spot for relaxing in the porch swing and rockers. The cabin's original front door opens into the living room, with walnut flooring, exposed rafters, a cathedral ceiling, and a native stone fireplace with a handcrafted log mantel, shown to artful advantage by spotlights. Some of the many eye-catching antiques on display in the living room include a late 1700's desk from Colonial Virginia, a hand-cranked telephone, a gramophone, a double-seat school desk with an inkwell, and the cabin's original oil lamps. A loft overlooks the living room, currently in use as an office but easily repurposed as a play area, craft space or studio. The kitchen features the cabin's original 12-inch wide pegged maple flooring. The ceiling is pressed copper, the cabinets are wormy chestnut, the counters are quartz and the country-style sink is fireclay. Like most lighting in the cabin, the kitchen lights are controlled by dimmers. A 6-seat breakfast nook is incorporated in the kitchen, with views of the yard and mountains. The Frigidaire appliances include a refrigerator-freezer, a glass-top electric range, a dishwasher and a microwave. There is a formal dining room with an 8-seat reclaimed barnwood table and two wood chandeliers. The walls have wainscoting, and there is a small china cabinet. A sunroom with an arched window overlooks the mountains. The sunroom, which features beadboard walls, includes a propane gas fireplace and a wall-mounted 54" LG TV. A sliding glass door opens from the sunroom to the deck. The master suite has an arched window with a sunrise view. There is a queen poster bed and a wall-mounted 48" LG TV. The master bath, which has a similar arched window with an eastern exposure, includes a clawfoot soaking tub, a tiled shower and a cultured marble vanity. The second bedroom has a pine ceiling, a queen bed and a wall-mounted 48" Vizio TV. The bath includes a clawfoot tub, a tiled shower and a laminate counter with a porcelain sink. The cabin has a laundry room with a washer and a hookup for a dryer. A large deck spans much of the width of the cabin, providing dramatic views of the mountain scenery as well as a perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. The fenced garden is a few steps away. The 20 raised beds include some perennials  strawberries, blueberries, black and red raspberries and asparagus. There are several outbuildings on the property  a barn with studio potential, and storage buildings for the lawn and farm equipment that conveys with the sale, which includes a 48" John Deere Zero-turn mower, a Branson tractor and a gas-operated E-Z-Go golf cart. The 52-acre hardwood forest surrounding the property offers numerous possibilities for nature lovers, photographers and hunters. There are trails for hiking and mountain biking, and old logging roads for ATV's. Foragers will appreciate the abundance of wild blackberries, morel mushrooms and ginseng, and there are countless maple trees that can be tapped for syrup in the early spring. While the property has a remote, peaceful ambience, it is only a few minutes' drive from Sandstone Falls on the New River and the historic railroad town of Hinton. While it sounds like a cliché to say this is a unique property that needs to be seen to be appreciated, this one-of-a-kind creatively restored cabin, its numerous extras and jewel-like setting are well worth a trip to the mountaintop.
