Cabin

Are you tired of neighbors, reliable cell service (actually, there's good service), and the relentless convenience of a grocery store? Welcome to 31.02 acres of pure, unadulterated "leave me alone." This 4,480 square foot cabin masterpiece was hand-crafted over twenty years by a woodsman who clearly had a black belt in improvisation, resulting in more character in one ceiling beam than most suburban cul-de-sacs have in their entirety. While the original owner put in the love, the current owner—a motivated builder with a penchant for over-engineering—spent the last 3 years prepping this fortress for the apocalypse, or at least a very spirited winter. He’s performed an impressive facelift, tightening the construction and protecting the logs from the elements while beautifying the interior. The fruit of his labor is your gain: the master bathroom is now complete, and the home boasts a brand-new metal roof with fresh plywood decking and an ice and water shield. The exterior has been sealed, siding repaired, and fresh concrete poured in the basement, garage, and around the foundation. You are essentially your own utility company now, thanks to top-of-the-line solar, a new generator, and 1,500 gallons of propane tanks. An actual electrical contractor updated the wiring, a licensed plumber handled the pipes, and a tankless propane water heater is ready to go. Even the driveway has been pampered with truckloads of gravel. At 7,400 feet of elevation, you are closer to the eagles than the taxman. Access is "seasonal," which is realtor-speak for "bring a snowmobile or a very brave truck." You’ll find yourself 6.4 miles past where the county plows and another 3.75 miles past where the local hermits give up. There is no well, but a year-round stream provides water to a cistern and gravity-fed system during the warmer months, though you’ll want to pack in your own vintage of bottled drinking water. The neighbors consist mostly of elk, deer, bear, and moose who won't complain about your lawn height. Surrounded by Forest Service access and ripe for exploration, the hunting is phenomenal. If you are looking for a smart home where you can talk to your fridge, keep moving; but if you want a rugged, fortified, off-grid legend, the view from this picture window is calling your name. Cash only! Will not finance due to non-guaranteed access. Not for sissies.
