Tucked deep into 50 pristine, wooded acres that directly border the Shenandoah National Park, this extraordinary 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat blends 19th-century Appalachian history with hints of the clean, light-filled elegance of Frank Lloyd Wright's organic modernism. Originally an 1800s hand-hewn log cabin, the home has been rustically updated with generous fenestration that invites the forest inside while casting nighttime interiors aglow like a lantern among the trees. This is a property that lives and breathes with nature. Abundant natural springs, cleared hiking trails and terraced stone gardens””lush and lovingly manicured””cascade down the mountain slope, bordered by ancient, dry-stacked stone walls that have stood for generations. A clear, manageable pond reflects the towering hardwoods, while seasonal springs and filtered mountain light nourish a rich understory of mountain laurel, ferns, and rare lady slippers. Inside, rustic timbers and original log walls meet warm modern finishes, creating a serene and grounded living space designed for both comfort and contemplation. Thoughtfully placed windows frame sweeping views of forest, sky, and gardens at every turn. Whether you're seeking quiet solitude, a writer's or artist's
