About this home
Some properties are simply built differently in every sense of the phrase. Set on nearly four private, wooded acres in the coveted southern end of Deep Creek Lake, 125 Ruta Lane is a custom Yellowstone log home that delivers the kind of craftsmanship, character, and setting that the lake area rarely sees come to market.
From the moment you arrive, the architecture commands attention. Yellowstone's signature oversized solid round logs give the home a presence that no modern construction can replicate, and the dry-stack fieldstone chimney rising through all three levels is a testament to a masonry artform that has all but vanished from today's building landscape, replaced elsewhere by faux composites, but preserved here in its full, labor-intensive glory.
Inside, the great room sets the tone for everything that follows. A floor-to-ceiling signature tree column anchors the space beneath soaring cathedral ceilings and hand-hewn log beams, while a dry-stack stone fireplace serves as the room's natural focal point. The open floor plan flows seamlessly from the renovated gourmet kitchen, featuring a dramatic granite island, stainless KitchenAid appliances, and custom knotty cherry cabinetry, through the dining area and out to the expansive deck, where wooded privacy gives way to lovely lake views that remind you exactly where you are.
Four bedrooms are spread thoughtfully across three levels, including the main level primary suite with an updated en-suite bath. The loft level adds two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a cozy sitting area overlooking the great room below. The fully finished lower level, wrapped in authentic Tennessee barnwood, offers a fourth bedroom, a third full bath, a bar area, and walkout access to the newly covered patio, where a new hot tub, stacked native stone walls, and a fire pit create an outdoor living space worthy of the setting.
And then there is the lake. Two assigned DNR-permitted dock slips on a quiet, private cove are included with this sale, a distinction that genuinely sets this property apart, as two-slip access at this price point is rare at Deep Creek. A level, well-maintained path connects the property to the water, where boating, kayaking, swimming, and summer evenings on the dock await.
The nearly four acres, comprising two wooded lots conveying together, deliver a sense of seclusion and privacy that feels a world away, while still being just minutes from everything the lake area has to offer. Roof 2019. HVAC 2020. Septic pumped October 2025. Comcast broadband. Completely turn-key and ready for its next chapter.
