Positioned on a private 0.88-acre lot in the peaceful countryside of Candler, this classic log cabin offers a rare blend of mountain charm, natural beauty, and everyday convenience. Comes with an additional 0.83-acre lot for added privacy or potential future development. Just 25 minutes from Downtown Asheville, the setting feels tucked away while keeping local amenities within easy reach. Warm wood tones, beamed ceilings, and a beautiful rock gas-log fireplace create an inviting interior designed for comfortable everyday living. The main level features a living room, dining area, kitchen with island, and guest half bath, while the upper level offers three bedrooms and a full bath. Outdoor living is equally appealing, with a full-length covered front porch, screened rear porch, deck space, winter mountain views, and a level yard surrounded by trees. With garage, generous storage space, private well + recently pumped septic, AT&T fiber optic internet, no HOA, no restrictions, and a new roof installed in 2025, the property is ready to bring your mountain relaxation dreams to reality! While this cabin is perfect for full-time living, its inviting, private setting also make it an ideal vacation home or short-term rental opportunity. Thoughtful inclusions add even more value, including a generator and wood stove in the basement, a safe in the primary bedroom closet, window A/C units—all of which convey with the home. More than a cabin, 5 Rustic Ridge Drive offers a peaceful Western North Carolina lifestyle with room to breathe, gather, and make it your own.
