Rich in history, the hand-hewn log cabin was once part of an original family homestead. Family and local historical accounts suggest that the cabin dates back to the 18th century and is the oldest structure in Polk County still in its original location. Given its age, the current owner had the home assessed by a GC for structural integrity, and the house was deemed solid. The home has had two additions over the years. This place is special, and you’ll feel it the moment you step foot on the property.
Conveniently located ten minutes from Lake Lure, 20 minutes from Columbus, 20 minutes from the Tryon Equestrian Center, and 35 minutes from Hendersonville.
Property is at the end of a private dead-end dirt road, so out of respect for neighbors, please, no drive-bys. Showings by appointment only. Agent is owner.
