*Back on the market due to no fault of the seller* If your favorite thing about the North GA Mountains is spending time outdoors, then this is the cabin for you! The abundant outdoor features at this home include: an open deck leading to an outdoor kitchen with built-in grill and tile counters; covered party porch with fireplace, hot tub, space for a tv, and tons of relaxing seating; the perfect spot for roasting marshmallows in the front yard firepit; small pond for practicing your casting; large grassy space perfect to let the kids or dogs run; unique "crows nest" covered deck with a wood burning stove, lounging spots, and an awesome seasonal mountain view; plus a rustic "barn" shed perfect for storing your outdoor gear. The inside of the home is just as amazing as the outside providing plenty of room in an easily manageable size. Featuring vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, a cozy great room with fireplace, kitchen with quartz counters, and two well-appointed bedrooms plus 2 bathrooms. Find all this located in the mountain community of Double Knob that is nearby to trails and outdoor adventures, while still being a short drive to Ellijay or Blue Ridge. This would be perfect to own as a relaxing getaway or as a rental investment. Being sold fully furnished, all you need to do is figure which of this cabin's outdoor spots you're going to enjoy watching the fireflies flicker from first!
