Relax and unwind in the brand new Heirloom Cabin on beautiful Lewis Smith Lake, Alabama. Located in a quiet cove off of Rock Creek with huge views of one of the cleanest lakes in the U.S., this cabin abounds with authenticity!
Heirloom Cabin was carefully carved into the natural landscape of mature hardwood trees and moss-covered rocks to look as if it has always been there. To further fit in with its surroundings, the home was built with all natural materials including wood walls throughout the home, wood siding, natural moss rock stone on the inside and outside, marble and slate bathrooms, and soapstone countertops.
The living room has custom designer furniture along with a masonry fireplace and a folding glass wall that completely opens up to the screened porch. The kitchen concept brings you back to a simpler time but is fully outfitted and anchored by a three-foot custom Viking gas range and commercial hood. The Subzero fridge is carefully hidden away in a custom built cabinet, and the microwave and other countertop appliances are stowed in an effort to not give away the age of the home. While the concept of the design was to be cozy and inviting, there is over 2100 SF of space in the 4 bedroom and 3 bathroom home spread out across three levels. It's reassuring to know during inclement weather that the lake level bathroom is also a storm room with 10" thick reinforced concrete walls, drop ceiling, and steel door.
Main Level: Eat-in-kitchen, Living room, screened porch, master bedroom (Queen), full bathroom, wet bar, laundry closet (front loading)
Upper Level: Two Bedrooms (Queens) with vaulted ceilings, shared bathroom
Lake Level: Den, kitchenette, bedroom (2 twin beds in bunk configuration), full bathroom, concrete safe room
What we love about the Heirloom Cabin:
-Located on a quiet cove with beach area but with year round water, zero boat traffic, and long range views
-Almost every room has a lake view
-Wet bar has a faucet that filters and dispenses chilled flat or sparkling water (leave the La Croix at home)
-Cozy master bedroom with stone wall, sitting nook, and great views
-Open up the folding wall to the screen porch and open the top half of the kitchen dutch door and feel the breeze coming off the lake and through the trees
-Covered boat dock with Hydrohoist boat lift, stand up paddle boards, canoe, and comfy lounge furniture
-Nearly 1 acre of land and 300' of waterfront to explore. The area to the side of the house has huge rock outcroppings and a cave to explore.
Our Heirloom Cabin was built with great care to create an authentic, timeless, and generational lake vacation experience. From the wooded drive down a winding lane, to the trees and rock outcroppings that the cabin has emerged from, you will forget your worries upon arrival.
