The space
Located about 2 hours from Washington, DC, the home is a completely private two-story, 1,800 SF cabin with three beds and two bedrooms. The 2.5 acre property is totally secluded from neighbors, and the home's location on a hillside places you amongst the treetops.

LIVING & DINING:
The living room is furnished with a large wrap-around couch and smart TV, perfect for a cozy movie night. Adjacent to the living room, the dining room table is large enough for every guest to enjoy a home-made meal or one of the board games provided in the home. Both spaces have direct access to the indoor, wood-burning stove.

SCREEN PORCH:
Off of the living room is a screen porch with spectacular views of the tree canopy, and in the winter, the mountain peaks in the distance.

The front main porch has a charming porch swing and charcoal grill for guest use. Around the rear of the house, on the level below is an additional porch with access to the outdoor fire pit.
