Welcome to your own little hilltop haven. The cabin is absolutely charming, lovingly crafted and filled with artistic touches that make it unlike anything you are likely to find in an ordinary vacation cabin. The sellers are talented craftsmen, and their creativity is evident everywhere you look - from beautiful wood trim and detailed finishes to a handmade headboard, artistic countertops and gorgeous rockwork surrounding the woodstove. Even the furniture has character, with comfortable chairs featuring distinctive cowhide-covered seats. Nothing here feels mass-produced or ordinary. Every corner has a little something to discover. The main living area is warm and inviting, with a cozy woodstove, comfortable seating and a thoughtful off-grid solar setup. The main room and television can run from the solar system, while a small generator can be used when additional power is needed, including for bedroom lighting. A covered entryway creates a delightful little sitting area, while the front deck opens up to those incredible views. Imagine your morning coffee here, looking out over the mountains and ocean as the day begins. Or perhaps an evening glass of wine while the sun fades over the landscape. Then step outside and discover what may be one of the most delightful parts of the property. A brand-new greenhouse and fenced garden create a wonderful little oasis, complete with a solar-powered water drip system to help keep the greenhouse and garden growing. The fencing itself is beautifully handcrafted, adding to the feeling that this isn't simply a piece of land--it is a place someone has poured their heart into. Nearby, a charmingly arranged outdoor wood-fired pizza oven creates its own destination. With benches and seating gathered around it, this is a place to cook, visit, laugh and enjoy the view. There is also a BBQ and picnic table, along with other thoughtfully placed seating where you can simply stop and take it all in. And the views are extraordinary. From this elevated hilltop setting, you have broad, unobstructed views of the ocean and surrounding mountains. If you've been searching for waterfront but haven't found quite the right place, this property offers something wonderfully different: instead of being beside the water, you are above it all. You get the views, the elevation, the sunlight and the feeling of being completely removed from the ordinary world below. The property gets wonderful sun when the skies are clear, and there is something special about being up here. Quiet surrounds you. Wildlife wanders through. On our first visit, a baby deer was resting beside the porch while its mother relaxed nearby. It's peaceful. It's private. It's beautiful. And perhaps best of all, there is room to dream. The cabin sits toward one side of this generous hilltop property, leaving plenty of desirable space for future plans. Build a larger dream home. Add additional cabins. Create a guest retreat. Expand the gardens. Or imagine something completely your own. The rocky hilltop that creates such a spectacular setting also provides incredibly solid foundation conditions, with the cabin's pilings firmly set into the underlying rock. The property is fully off-grid, with road access but no power service to the subdivision. The cabin and greenhouse are solar powered, with a generator available when needed. Neighbors live here year-round, so although this property is particularly well suited to a vacation retreat, year-round living is certainly possible. The cabin has a shower and sink but does not currently have a toilet. Because of the rocky terrain and the location of the septic system, the sellers had planned to build a separate bathhouse nearby but had not completed it before selling. There are several ways a future owner could finish this aspect of the property, whether with a thoughtfully designed bathhouse, an indoor composting toilet or another solution appropriate for the site. And what a bathhouse this could be. Imagine creating a beautiful little spa-like retreat where you can shower, relax and take in the same spectacular views. Or simply choose the practical solution and get back outside to enjoy the rest of your hilltop paradise. There is plenty of parking, along with a storage shed, wood storage and an additional woodshed and a view deck over the enclosed water tank. The property has room for vehicles, ATVs and all the things you need to enjoy your time here, while still leaving plenty of open space for future development. This is a place for the person who doesn't just want a vacation property - they want somewhere special to escape to. Somewhere you can leave the rest of the world far below. Somewhere you can grow a garden, bake pizza over a wood fire, sit around with friends, watch the wildlife wander through, and wake up to a view that never gets old. Somewhere you can spend a weekend - or imagine building the next chapter of your life. And if you're bringing someone along who isn't particularly interested in fishing? We think they'll find plenty to love here. The garden, greenhouse, handcrafted cabin, outdoor living spaces and spectacular scenery make this a destination all on its own. In fact, this setting was special enough to host a wedding. That tells you something. Come up the hill. Breathe deeper. Slow down. Look out over the water. The world can wait. Your little piece of paradise is waiting above it all. Information is believed to be accurate but is not guaranteed and is subject to change.
