Property Description

There are a finite number of cabins around Cave Run Lake with a water view, only 12 in this area actually and this one is the only one currently for sale!!!!! A million-dollar view without the million-dollar price tag! Sweeping views of the waters of Cave Run Lake and the Zilpo peninsula steal the show at this rare 13-acre retreat enveloped within the Daniel Boone National Forest and among just a handful of Bath County-side properties lucky enough to sit in this position. Loved and lived in full time by the same owners for over 3 decades, this year-round 3BR/1.5BA cabin offers all the conveniences for full-time living plus striking curb appeal. From native rock landscaping all across the front of the house and panoramic lake views from the 30' screened-in back deck makes you feel like you're the only one in the world. The main level features two living areas with a view of nature from every window, an office (or bedroom), a full bath and a kitchen equipped with refrigerator, oven (no cooktop), dishwasher and microwave. The lower level includes 2 bedrooms, a half bath, cozy family room and walkout access to a 30' covered patio running the length of the home with???you guessed it???water views. A spacious 2-car detached garage includes an upper-level woodworking studio plus a heated space with a separate entrance ideal for an office or studio. The propane tank is leased through Clark Propane and fuels the charming freestanding gas stove upstairs, wall heater in one of the bedrooms and the whole property Generac generator. Water is supplied by a cistern (approx. 4' deep and patio-length) with water-capture system and a pump that is approximately 1-2 years old. Not only is there a whole-house water filter but filters under each sink. The sellers have been drinking the water from the cistern for decades. The septic was replaced in February 2018, the HVAC in May 2024 and the water heater in January 2024. Fast fiber optic internet. The acreage stretches down the ridge to the national forest land bordering the lake. If future expansion is in your future, there are several building areas along Bobcat Lane. This is the ultimate base camp for hiking, wildlife watching, relaxing and year-round adventure. Please NOTE: while this property sits on 13 acres, the majority of the acreage is very steep down to where it connects with the Daniel Boone National Forest and not easily traversable but it can be done. Just 2 miles from the Zilpo Boat Ramp.
