A 2023 metal roof greets you before you reach the newly added front porch — a practical, low-maintenance welcome that sets the tone for the upgrades inside. This 2007-built cabin has been reimagined from top to bottom to deliver modern comfort and the rustic character buyers seek in the mountains. The main level opens to newly installed hardwood floors that run through the living, dining, and bedrooms; anchored by the original stone fireplace, the living area is both warm and stylish.
The kitchen has been fully renovated with brand-new cabinetry and sleek modern appliances that make everyday cooking feel special. The layout supports easy entertaining, with clear sightlines from the kitchen to the living space and direct access to the private back deck for alfresco meals or evening stargazing. Both bedrooms and two bathrooms are arranged for privacy and convenience, making this a comfortable primary residence or a lock-and-leave retreat.
Downstairs, a partially finished basement expands the home’s possibilities — a game room, media center, home gym, or a guest suite are all within reach. A propane hookup is already in place for a future lower-level fireplace, so finishing that space could nearly double usable square footage and increase resale value. Practical exterior upgrades include new gutters with guards and freshly varnished wood siding, preserving the cabin’s woodsy appeal without the upkeep headaches.
Set on just over an acre in a quiet neighborhood with modest restrictions, the property offers space and privacy while staying close to Lake Hiwassee recreational resources. Thoughtful details — a circular driveway for easy guest access, a backyard grapevine and blueberry bush, plus tasteful staging throughout — make this an exceptionally move-in-ready option for buyers seeking a turn-key mountain lifestyle.
This property sits in the quiet mountain outskirts of Murphy, a small town offering a relaxed pace, local services, and easy access to Lake Hiwassee. The neighborhood enforces only modest restrictions, preserving rural character while protecting property values. Residents enjoy outdoor recreation—fishing, boating, and hiking—plus the convenience of town amenities a short drive away. The area appeals to buyers seeking a second-home retreat, active outdoor lifestyle, or a peaceful year-round residence with a tight-knit community feel.
This listing is priced at $378,900, which aligns closely with the valuation midpoint ($378,900) and a price-per-square-foot estimate of $376 derived from the Redfin data for this property. That consistency suggests the list price is market-aware for a remodeled 2-bedroom cabin on just over an acre in the Murphy/Lake Hiwassee corridor. While up-to-the-minute local inventory and days-on-market figures are not included in the provided dataset, single-family cabins and lake-area retreats in this region typically attract buyers looking for turnkey condition and lower-maintenance construction — both of which this home delivers (metal roof 2023, new gutters, renovated interiors). For investors and owner-occupants alike, the partially finished basement presents clear upside: completing that space would increase square footage and likely improve comparable sales metrics. Given the scarcity of fully renovated small cabins with acreage near Lake Hiwassee, motivated sellers may still capture premium offers; prospective buyers should consult a local agent for current DOM, inventory levels, and comp-driven negotiation strategy tailored to Cherokee County and Murphy micro-market trends.
Very good outdoor access: Lake Hiwassee recreational opportunities nearby for boating and fishing, mountain hiking and scenic drives within minutes, and local parks and greenways for daily walking.
