Fabulously remodeled lakefront farmhouse, beautifully blended with a touch of rustic mountain decor! 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and 3500 total finished living space, split between two houses on this UNRESTRICTED waterfront lot, this property is sure to satisfy your primary, secondary, or Investment needs. Terrace level has been converted into an in-law suite with a 2nd kitchen. New tile wood-looking flooring, new tongue & groove wood ceilings, new granite countertops, new solid core wood doors, new shiplap walls, new stainless-steel appliances, a metal roof, and new wrap-a-round open deck. The separate rustic metal building has been remodeled into a ~750 sqft "barn house" with finished new wood-looking tile floors and sheetrock walls, wood ceiling, with added power and water (just need a bathroom). This is unrestricted land, so bring RV, or your boats, or your chickens and goats. Countless species of birds and reptiles including bald eagles, hawks, owls, blue & white herons, ducks & mallards & geese, turtles, and frogs can be found during the summer by the lake. Carp are often seen in the shallow banks along the shoreline. Less than a mile to a large grocery store and gas station, only a few miles from downtown, and a very short drive to other popular mountain towns in GA such as Blue Ridge, Ellijay, Helen, Hiawassee, and Murphy in NC. Countless outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, wineries, antique shopping, and arts & craft shows, are only minutes away. An additional adjoining .58-acre lakefront lot can be purchased separately for added privacy or to build lakefront home.
