A rare combination of end-of-road privacy, long-range mountain views, and 33.53+/- unrestricted acres, this Highlands-area log cabin offers the kind of usable mountain land that is increasingly difficult to find. Surrounded on two sides by USFS land, the property feels quiet and protected, with a private pond, ample parking, a cleared trail across Flat Mountain Rd, and multiple potential homesites where selective tree limbing or clearing could open additional view opportunities.

Inside, warm wood walls, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and layered natural textures create a relaxed, collected atmosphere.

One side is covered and includes a porch swing, creating a quiet place to take in the ridgelines.
