This wonderful home on the shores of Lake Rabun is everything you need to enjoy lake life. Outside, you will enjoy the spacious wrap around porch, featuring a gas fireplace, outdoor dining area and panoramic views of the lake. The feel of the mountain breeze and the tranquil sounds of the creek trailing down the mountain are all you need to unwind. As you enter the home from the large 2 car garage, you are welcomed with an open concept floor plan, resplendent with gorgeous heart pine flooring. A dry stack stone fireplace in the living room is a focal point for welcoming a chilly evening. The gourmet kitchen was remodeled with all new solid wood cabinetry and top of the line appliances just 4 years ago. An antique French display bin has been repurposed as a bar and large kitchen island. This level also has a full bath, a mud/tool room, and separate laundry room. Upstairs there are 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 full sunny baths. A bonus area can be used as an office, game room or den. The oversized master bedroom features a lounge area, walk-in closet, dual vanity bathroom and lots of natural light. The boathouse is just across the street with 2 stall lifts below and a partially covered upper floor for shade, sun and fun. The home has a handy whole house generator for mountain power outages. Making this home your own will assure you can enjoy all that lake life has to offer.
