Nestled on 5 beautiful acres near Malad and surrounded by the natural beauty of Southern Idaho, this inviting log home offers the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and adventure. Imagine waking up to fresh mountain air, enjoying coffee on the porch as wildlife passes through, and ending your evenings beneath a sky full of stars. Thoughtfully maintained and updated, the home features a recently remodeled kitchen, professionally chinked logs, a new furnace, and central air conditioning, providing modern comfort while preserving the warmth and character that make log homes so special. Throughout the home, unique custom touches showcase the craftsmanship and personality of the property, including hand-carved chainsaw bears incorporated into the banister, a stunning hand-carved mantel, and impressive antler chandeliers that perfectly complement the mountain-lodge atmosphere. Beyond the main cabin, a separate guest cabin offers incredible flexibility.
