About this home

Log home on a level, fully fenced .51-acre lot near Black Lake in Olympia — a true log cabin feel with the space of a full-time residence. Inspection and VA appraisal contingencies satisfied — move-in ready. Good fit for buyers who need workspace, hobby space, or flexible living arrangements. Includes a detached 2-car garage with built-in workshop and covered RV parking, plus a separate detached ADU-style building with power and water - currently set up as a gym, could work as a home office, studio, or additional living space (buyer to verify use and suitability). Main house is a 2-bedroom with an upstairs flex room, main-level gas stove, and good natural light. Recent updates: log exterior re-bleached, stained, and sealed, new flooring, updated entry doors, and a new tankless water heater. Quiet, private log cabin retreat minutes from shopping, parks, downtown Olympia, and I-5. Unique and adorable - looking for the right buyer.
