The cabin at 805 Pine Cone Street in Leesburg, Alabama, is the kind of lake retreat people wish for when they think of the perfect lake escape.
This pristine tiny cabin of 560 square feet, built in 2023, is located on almost an acre of land that slopes down to the clear waters of Weiss Lake – a lake known throughout the South-East as the “Crappie Capital of the World”. This cabin is all about turnkey perfection right from the moment you drive down the quiet street and see the bright white exterior and metal roof shining in the sun.
If you step onto the large covered front porch – a place that could not be more suitable for rocking chairs and morning coffee – you will understand the reason why every guest that stayed here left a five-star review.
The cabin is fully outfitted and provisioned: one just needs to bring their clothes, food, and a fishing rod. The kitchen with its stainless steel appliances is neat and efficient, the cabin is lit with recessed lighting which gives it a cozy feel and the tankless water heater is there for the hot water that has no end after the day spent on the boat. Two mounted TVs offer the possibility of movie nights whether you are lounging downstairs or in the ingenious loft that you can get to by a pull-down staircase.
The cabin with its open floor design seems to be way bigger than its small area. A comfortable queen bed serves as the main sleeping area on the first floor, while there is enough space for additional air mattresses or sleeping bags in the loft which can easily accommodate up to eight people as a cabin.
Vinyl plank flooring that can withstand wet feet coming from the lake, a full bathroom with contemporary fixtures, and central HVAC that can make the cabin cool even during hot Alabama summer days and warm when the autumn nights turn chilly are just a few of the things that have been thought through to the very last detail in this cabin.
The truth is that the magic of this place is not in the cabin. There is an awesome covered entertainment pavilion spanning 320 square feet that awaits for the cookouts to be held there – it features ceiling fans, string lights, and space that can take the largest gatherings. A double-tier dock that extends into Weiss Lake is just a few steps away, thus offering the most comfortable place to do bot tying, fishing at sunset, or just letting the water ripple watching. Most probably, people will spend their evenings at the stone fire pit that is surrounded by Adirondack chairs and where they will indulge in making s’mores and telling stories while not stopping the breeze which comes from the lake.
The property is actually a very nice piece of land made up of three lots combined that measure 0.95 acres in total and therefore, the cabin has an amazing privacy and quite an extensive reach. There is level parking space that can accommodate several vehicles, boats, and trailers, and meanwhile, a grassy play area is there inviting cornhole tournaments or space for the kids and dogs to run. Trees that have already grown to be mature are there around the cabin but still, they are not blocking the beautiful lake views and the gentle slope towards the water is lovely for both kids and adults.
The biggest difference between this cabin and the others is how nicely it fits multiple lifestyles without much effort. If used as a full-time residence, one will enjoy low-maintenance lakefront living with all the modern comforts. If used as a weekend getaway, everything will be ready the moment one’s arrival—there will be no need to unpack boxes of linens or buying paper towels. If used as an investment property, the cabin has already made the case through which it has a strong rental history and only positive five-star reviews. Guests often mention that the place is spotless; the amenities are thoughtful, and it feels magical as if they have the whole lakeside compound for themselves.
Weiss Lake is, in fact, the crown jewel. With 447 miles of shoreline and more than 30,000 acres of water, it is a heaven for fishing, boating, kayaking, and swimming. The cabin’s location in Leesburg makes it so that you are only a few minutes away from marinas, restaurants, and necessities, but still, you are far enough from people to be able to experience complete seclusion. Sunsets here are talked about all over – they do the sky in cotton-candy colors that mirror across the water and from almost every spot of the property one can see it.
The custom outdoor pavilion, the private dock, and the fire pit that almost seems like it is here for your late-night conversations are just a few examples out of every inch of this cabin that has been made for the purpose of creating memories. This is the kind of place where newcomers, after walking in, take a deep breath and say, “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for”.
This charming turnkey cabin along with its waterfront parcel of nearly one acre is now being offered for sale at $225,000. Anything and everything that you see here – from the furniture to the fishing rods – will be with the new owner making the property truly move-in (or rent-out) ready from the very first day.
