Leave a little extra time for the porch. Wrapping around three sides of this log-style chalet, it offers plenty of places for morning coffee, an afternoon book, or catching up long after supper. Set on 5.46 acres approximately 10 minutes from Andrews, this home pairs a private mountain setting with an easy trip to town. Inside, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace gives the spacious living room a natural gathering place, while the open layout keeps the cook in the conversation. Hardwood floors and wood walls bring classic cabin warmth, with chiseled-edge granite in the kitchen and a custom live-edge wood countertop in the lower-level bathroom adding individual character. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms are complemented by an upstairs bonus area currently set up for additional sleeping. The loop driveway makes welcoming company easy, with abundant parking and room to consider a future garage. Only one neighboring home is slightly visible, and passing traffic is light. Carefully maintained by its original owner, the home has been enjoyed as a mountain getaway and a gathering place for friends and family over the years. The home is being sold fully furnished, with a few items excluded. It's easy to picture the next chapter here: a few favorite porch chairs, familiar faces around the fireplace, and weekends that feel a little too short.
