Creekfront! Your North Georgia dream starts here! This stunning 2018-built modern farmhouse rests on 2.62 acres of unrestricted land in the highly desirable Cartecay area, with water frontage on both sides of Scrougetown Creek, offering the ultimate combination of privacy, soothing sounds & year-round natural beauty. Inside, the home showcases 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths & 2 half baths. The main-level owner's suite opens onto a sprawling 400 sqft covered porch where you can relax & soak in sweeping views of Stover Mountain & the surrounding pastures. The light-filled great room features large picture windows that perfectly frame the mountain backdrop, while the cozy gas log fireplace creates the ideal gathering spot. The kitchen shines with quartz countertops & quality finishes, conveniently located near a 1/2 bath & laundry area. Upstairs, you'll find 2 additional bedrooms, a full bath, plus an office with small kitchenette & amazing covered porch with mountain views, a peaceful retreat for morning coffee or quiet evenings. The partially finished basement is a blank canvas, already equipped with a half bath (plumbed for a shower), wet bar area & gas log/washer-dryer hookups. With 1,200 square feet of space, it offers endless potential for a separate apartment, rec room, or multigenerational living. Outside, the property continues to impress with charming greenhouse, small barn, and open pasture ideal for gardening, a mini-farm, or simply enjoying the outdoors. No HOA, no restrictions & no flood insurance required. Located in the heart of Ellijay's famed wine & apple country, you're moments from orchards, vineyards, hiking trails & the Cartecay River, with easy access to Springer Mountain, Aska Road & Amicalola Falls. Downtown Ellijay & Hwy 515 are just a short, paved drive away. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, vacation home, or income-producing retreat, this property offers the perfect blend of modern comfort & mountain serenity. (Zillow is wrong house is NOT in floodplain.)
