The Time Has Arrived:

We have bought a cabin in N. Carolina and will soon be moving to that cabin. We are selling this cabin as we don't need two 1,400 miles apart. This cabin comes with two 5 1/2 acres or 11 acres total. It has a green belt behind our property that goes to the top of the mountain. It has two springs that run year around and probably is what attracts the deer, elk and bears. 

The views are breathtaking as the photo above shows. We have 900 sf. and the house has a sleeping loft, one bathroom, a pantry that was originally designed to be a second bedroom. The A-Frame design was chosen to make sure snow came off the roof. It has a large deck that you can see two mountains from. It is at 9,800' elevation. It has a large living room with a compact and fully functional kitchen and office space. It has a basement and the house is fully enclosed to keep it dry under the back of the house where it is dirt floor and has a laundry room. 

We chose a small house so we wouldn't have so much to clean and it is easy to heat with our Yotul wood stove. We have two ETF heaters, one in the front and one in the back to keep the house warm. We have a small area where we have rhubarb plants, raspberry, gooseberry and current plants. We are leaving the tools, furniture and equipment to live all year long comfortably. We have high speed internet but the real benefit of the house is the lifestyle. We left the big city life  and went back to the earth which is a stress free lifestyle. Our 215 foot  well provides us with the best water which is very tasty and  the fresh air and cutting firewood is a healthy lifestyle. This is a different lifestyle which is basic and leaves time to interact with the wildlife and fully appreciate our surroundings.  We have electricity and so can enjoy the ease of living without all the maintenance. The house has native rock exterior and is most likely why, when we had the wildfire, our home and property were the only home on our 6 miles of road that was unscathed and survived. It has 3 shed's to help store equipment. We have decided to sell the house, contents and property for $359,000.00, after doing extensive research on values.
