Escape Big-City Life for This Azle Log Cabin
Share News:
Anyone dreaming of escaping horn honking and neighbors living too close might think a little cabin in the woods is the perfect break from big-city life.
Here’s your answer — a literal log cabin. Now on the market is a one‑of‑a‑kind custom log home tucked into a quiet, dead-end street at 424 Inwood Road in Azle. Realtor Gina Jones with Keller Williams Realty has listed the property for $435,000, making it an affordable escape for anyone with a budget under $450,000.
New Neighbors
Located a mile from Eagle Mountain Lake, this hidden retreat sits on more than a half-acre, shaded by 19 mature oak trees. Your neighbors? The deer and the birds live close. The backyard is part of the escape with a pergola-covered hot tub, sure to lower the stress of hectic days.
“It’s super cute,” said Realtor Gina Jones with Keller Williams Realty. “It’s in a neighborhood, but it doesn’t feel like it.”
Rustic Retreat
Built in 2018, the rustic retreat offers two bedrooms and two full baths in its 1,816 square feet. The open floor plan comes with wood-beamed cathedral ceilings and luxury vinyl plank flooring. A striking, wood-burning fireplace, currently outfitted with gas logs, dominates the living room with its stone surround. The home’s ceiling fans, found throughout, would allow the log cabin’s windows to be opened for fresh air for much of the year. The house also includes two 12×12 flex rooms that can function easily as a home office, art studio, garden room, or even as additional bedrooms if closets were added. The current owners use it as “his and hers” rooms, one for an office and the other for hobbies, Jones said.
Important Accessibility
The unique floor plan comes with some extras that could be particularly important for people with mobility needs. Accessibility was built into the design for one of the current owners who uses a wheelchair. To accommodate that, the house was constructed with a zero‑step entry, 36‑inch doorways, ADA‑height toilets, a roll‑in shower with grab bars, and exterior sidewalks with three wheelchair access points. The features support easy, practical living while allowing everyone to enjoy the cabin-in-the-woods vibe.
Yet the busy metropolitan area town is only minutes away. Downtown Fort Worth is less than 30 minutes away by car, and Arlington’s sports venues are about 45 minutes away. The log cabin gives its own blend of rustic seclusion and big-city advantages.
Even with proximity to business and sports venues, the home’s long driveway adds to the feeling of escaping the big city. It offers much of what the large houses found on Eagle Mountain Lake do, but at half the price, the Realtor said.
“It’s unique,” Jones said. “It’s really a sweet thing.”
