Let’s do a little word association. When I say “log cabin,” what’s the first thing that pops into your brain?
“Mountains.”
“Camping”
“Skiing”
Pretty much all of these describe things you’d see or do at a cabin on the woods during vacation. There’s something about log cabins that is so cozy and sublime that it transports you to a quiet, remote place no matter where you are. Wouldn’t it be great, though, if you could live the log cabin lifestyle every day? We’re not talking about pancake syrup, folks. We’re talking about a beautiful log cabin home that feels like a relaxing mountain getaway without leaving town.
That’s what this beautiful log home on Lake Worth just outside of 820 north of Fort Worth offers. It’s a two-story log cabin with soaring ceilings, stone cladding and fireplace, warm interiors, and soft pine floors with walls of windows that let views of the lake inside.
Isn’t 4256 Lakewood Dr. just adorable? For the person who is in love with the log cabin lifestyle but doesn’t want to travel to get it, this home is absolutely heaven. Look at all that warm, knotty wood grain! I love how you never have to worry about drywall or paint in this home. And with all the natural light, the walls and floors just glow, don’t they?
Marketed by Keller Williams agent Ginger Knox, this 2,718-square-foot, three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home is listed for $599,000 and is well-equipped for your lakeside party lifestyle. Not only is there a two-story deck that wraps around the back of the home, a walk-out basement that leads to the dock, plus another stone fireplace, and a hibachi cooktop for all of your Benihana reenactments (better start working on your onion volcano), there’s also that nice boat dock with multiple lifts.
I’m already picturing how relaxing it would be to come home to all of this after a long day. Heck, everyone is going to want to stop in at your place at the end of the day. From Memorial Day to Fourth of July to Labor Day, you’ll be begging for more excuses to celebrate with a party at your own log cabin in the city.
The only question: What color boat should you get?
