Description

Lake Lovers, take a short drive of only about 5 minutes to Carters Lake Beach and Picnic area. The boat launch/ramp and marina are also just minutes away. This lovely log home (Satterwhite Logs) built in 2017, is poised at the end of a short gravel street in Woody Acres, an intimate enclave of log homes. Guests are greeted with a deep and wide covered front porch, so bring the rocking chairs! A great place to call home with two bedrooms, a loft and full bath upstairs, owners suite on the main level...Lake Lovers, take a short drive of only about 5 minutes to Carters Lake Beach and Picnic area. The boat launch/ramp and marina are also just minutes away. This lovely log home (Satterwhite Logs) built in 2017, is poised at the end of a short gravel street in Woody Acres, an intimate enclave of log homes. Guests are greeted with a deep and wide covered front porch, so bring the rocking chairs! A great place to call home with two bedrooms, a loft and full bath upstairs, owners suite on the main level with an easy flow from bedroom, bath, eat-in kitchen and living room. The basement is finished with laundry, flex room, storage closet and boat door for drive under parking (park the car or park the boat!). Two covered decks, one on Main and one on Basement level, overlook the fenced back yard and additional wooded acreage at the rear. Don't forget this is a 3-acre lot and there are only two other houses on this street so lots of privacy, quiet and peaceful natural surroundings. Six-foot-high black metal fence encircles the house and has gates at front and rear. Terraced garden spot, security system and water filtration system are just a few of the extras. Total electric with a backup plan. Some covenants but NO HOA!
