About this home

Turn key mountain get away! Your own personal mountain park featuring fast flowing cold water trout stream and perfectly manicured land. Enjoy endless outdoor adventures with a private beach, a refreshing swimming hole, all surrounded by lush woods and open spaces. You can tube the stream as well by putting in at the beginning of the road and floating home! Unwind in the outdoor screened sitting area, challenge friends to a game of horseshoes, or gather around the firepit for an evening of relaxation. Nestled on the peak of the property, the towering original homestead chimney is nostalgic. This property is truly a diamond in the rough, offering many possibilities of private outdoor fun. As an additional perk, adjoining this property is a pasture full of long haired Highland cows for your view. This stunning property features a well maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home complete with a cozy cast iron electric fireplace. Plenty of living space inside for those rainy days. Wrap around kitchen with plenty of cabinet space and functionality. Bar off kitchen opening up to the dining area for convenient hosting. Off the primary bedroom deck and outdoor dining area with mountain and pasture views. Additional outdoor storage space includes a workshop and single detached garage. This charming property is conveniently located to local vineyards, white water rafting, Harrah's CVR Casino and Hotel, Blue Ridge and McCaysville, GA. Come see it today while it's still available!
