Description

400+/- feet of Shoal Creek frontage set the tone for this rare mountain retreat, where the sound of rushing water and complete privacy come together on nearly 4 usable acres just outside of Murphy. Tucked along the banks of a bold, year-round mountain stream, this log cabin is positioned to fully capture the experience—whether you're fishing from your own property, relaxing on the private creekside observation deck, or simply enjoying the constant, calming sound of the water just steps away.

Tucked along the banks of a bold, year-round mountain stream, this log cabin is positioned to fully capture the experience—whether you're fishing from your own property, relaxing on the private creekside observation deck, or simply enjoying the constant, calming sound of the water just steps away. Inside, the cabin offers a warm and inviting feel with a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the great room and a comfortable, functional layout designed for easy mountain living. The main level features a spacious guest bedroom and full bath, while the upper-level loft serves as a private primary suite complete with walk-in closet and its own bath. The lower level adds even more flexibility with workshop space, additional storage, and a wide-open patio area ideal for gathering, entertaining, or unwinding after a day on the water. Outdoor living is where this property truly stands apart—offering direct, usable access to the creek along with plenty of level ground to enjoy, something that's increasingly hard to find with waterfront properties in the mountains. Additional highlights include a metal roof, private well, and the option to purchase furnished or with addtional land for a seamless transition. Located just minutes from local marinas with access to both Hiwassee Lake and Apalachia Lake, this property offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. A true creekfront property with this much frontage, usable land, and privacy is a rare find—ideal as a full-time residence, second home, or investment opportunity.
