Have you dreamt of a little cabin in the woods? Just 30 mins from Old Town Cave Creek there is a secret little jewel community that is for nature lovers that sits nestled among sycamore trees. It has a comfortable living space with a wood burning fireplace in the main living area and the master bedroom. There are multiple sitting areas in the living area or outside on the wood deck to watch for animals passing. The bright kitchen is highlighted with skylights creating a cheerful working space. A huge sycamore tree embraces the cabin and earned it the nick name ”tree house”. Don’t miss outside the sunroom that can serve as a studio, a quiet place for reading or an afternoon nap. The property was previously owned by well known Carefree architect Shelby Wilson.
