The 2 story atrium vaults all the way up to the intricate log roof. The main floor offers an original charming country kitchen, a formal dining room, a huge, beautiful, river rock fireplace, and a full bedroom with bath. Upstairs, --more bedrooms, another bath, and a mezzanine sitting area overlooking the first floor. Garage to the rear is also a log structure.
