Extensive renovation in 2016 has given the property two grand living spaces - both with fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, 4bedrooms, a bonus room perfect for an office (currently being used as a 5th bedroom) and 4 full baths. There is a new in-deck hot tub off the main living room and the lot has been landscaped and reworked to have ample parking and even and fire pit.

Extensive renovation in 2016 has given the property two grand living spaces - both with fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, 4bedrooms, a bonus room perfect for an office (currently being used as a 5th bedroom) and 4 full baths. There is a new in-deck hot tub off the main living room and the lot has been landscaped and reworked to have ample parking and even and fire pit. To duplicate this Southland log home would cost $150 per square foot to build and that doesn't include the 2 lots or the over $50,000 in deluxe furnishings being offered with the property. This is a true one-of-a-kind offering at the area's premier four season destination. Broker Interest.
