Hidden in the trees of Big Canoe, this beautifully updated mountain cottage offers the perfect blend of classic cabin charm and fresh, light-filled interiors. The long, gently sloping drive leads to a rocking-chair front porch and an oversized two-car garage, giving you great curb appeal plus plenty of easy parking for guests. Inside, warm hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and a stunning stacked-stone fireplace create a welcoming great room that opens seamlessly to the dining area and crisp white kitchen with gas range, solid-surface counters, and generous cabinet space—ideal for everyday living or hosting a full house. French doors spill out to a large screened and open deck that feels suspended in the trees, providing a true “indoor–outdoor” living experience for morning coffee, evening wine, and four-season entertaining. The main-level primary suite is a restful retreat with plantation shutters, hardwood flooring, and a spa-style bath featuring a freestanding soaking tub, frameless glass shower, and heated floors. Upstairs you’ll find additional guest spaces, fresh paint and carpet, and a conveniently located laundry area, making it easy to use this home as a full-time residence, lock-and-leave second home, or income-producing rental. Thoughtful touches include workshop potential off the garage with area framed/ wired / plumbed for additional bedroom and bath, 8 Year Old Roof & Gutters, Rinnai Tankless Hot Water Heater, and Zoned HVAC (less than 10 years old) that controls main and second levels. All of this is tucked inside the gates of Big Canoe, with world-class amenities including lakes, golf, hiking trails, clubhouse, pools, fitness, and racquet sports just a short drive away.
