Rustic charm, modern comforts, and a peaceful mountain setting come together in this inviting two-bedroom, two-bath cabin on Taylor Creek Road. Surrounded by woodland, with mountain and forest views and the sound of Taylor Creek in the distance, this retreat offers a welcome place to slow down and enjoy the mountains. The spacious porch is a highlight, with both covered and open areas for rocking chairs, outdoor dining, and quiet afternoons surrounded by nature. Begin the day with coffee in the fresh mountain air, then return after exploring to unwind as evening settles over the trees. Inside, warm rustic finishes and a cozy gas-log fireplace create an inviting atmosphere. Built in 2007, the approximately 1,052-square-foot cabin offers a comfortable, manageable layout suited to a weekend getaway or year-round home. Thoughtful updates include newer kitchen appliances, an LG washer and dryer, a dual-fuel heating and cooling system installed in 2018, and gutters with gutter screens added in 2024. A concrete driveway and parking area provide convenient access, while an encapsulated crawlspace with waterproofing, a dehumidifier, and a sump pump reflects the owners’ attention to maintenance. Connected thermostat controls, keyless entry, and water-monitoring features add everyday convenience. Enjoy a secluded feel with a central location between Cashiers, Highlands, Franklin, Cullowhee, and Sylva. Lake Glenville is approximately four miles away for boating and kayaking, while nearby hiking trails, waterfalls, fishing, and charming mountain towns offer plenty to explore. With no HOA fees and an annual contribution toward maintenance of Taylor Creek Road, this charming cabin is a place to settle in, breathe deeply, and enjoy mountain life—one porch-side morning at a time.
