Enjoy the sounds of Ellijay Creek from the nearby property! This lovely country setting includes views of neighboring pastures and creek plus a level yard with apple and cherry trees, grape vine, and garden space. A newer roof tops the 2 bedroom, 1 bath home that has a fireplace that currently has a wood stove insert. A previous owner closed in a carport to make a bonus room that has a Murphy bed for additional guest space. Outside space includes a covered front porch to take in the views as well as an adorable rustic outbuilding that the gentleman would love as a work space or the lady would love as a "she shed. " Approximately 10 minutes from shopping and restaurants. Update this one to make it your own.
