467 River Oaks Drive Austinville, VA 24312

Only 10 minutes from Interstate 77. Discover distinctive craftsmanship and peaceful mountain living in the gated community of River Oaks. Situated on 1.86 acres with a creek and a small pond stocked with bluegill and catfish, this one-owner, custom-built log cabin offers approximately 2,400 square feet of living space. The striking charred-timber exterior, inspired by the Shou Sugi Ban technique and finished with a protective oil treatment, helps protect from bore bees, woodpeckers, and mold, and introduces the character found throughout. Inside, soaring 16-foot vaulted ceilings, rich cedar trim, and an open-concept layout create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Granite countertops and stainless steel appliances complement a kitchen designed for everyday living and entertaining. The main-level primary suite features a private bathroom with a rain shower, while the guest bathroom offers a timeless clawfoot tub. A dedicated office, separate laundry room, generous storage, wide 36-inch doorways, and keyless entry add everyday convenience. Comfort comes from three heating sources: a 19 SEER heat pump, a new propane backup furnace, and a brand-new wood stove in the basement. Construction features include a precast concrete basement with approximately 10.5-inch-thick walls and engineered floor and roof trusses. A spring-water system with a 1,575-gallon holding tank and UV disinfection, along with Citizens fiber-optic internet, adds practical appeal. Two spacious 8-by-24-foot decks offer room to relax, entertain, and enjoy the surrounding nature.
