Imagine the peace and tranquility you will enjoy at this secluded cabin located within the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains. Hear the wind whistling through the trees as you lounge on your deck or enjoy the quietness as you read a book from your sunroom overlooking the back deck. Privacy is plentiful with over four unrestricted acres (4.4) of nature surrounding the cabin. The homeowners have made a multitude of updates and renovations so this cabin is comfortable and inviting while maintaining its character. The fireplace was completely rebuilt and is ready for a crackling fire on those cooler nights. The rustic mantle was made from refurbished wood collected from an old home in Charleston. Granite counters were added to the kitchen, a pantry built into the column for added storage and new flooring added that creates a smooth transition between the rooms. The main level bath is luxurious with a new deep soaking tub and shower combo, with glass wall. The main bedroom is spacious with storage shelves and a deep closet (safe inside the wall) with an adjacent sunroom complete with a a built-in bar area. Upstairs, guests have a separate thermostat to control their comfort level. There is also a room with sleeper sofa and a Loft area for additional sleeping space. A hall bath with tub/shower combo is also on this level. An awning can be opened on the back deck for extra shade or so you can enjoy the space during a rain shower. The outdoors, wrap around porch and yard becomes part of the living space, bringing you back where you belong among the trees and nature. This home is being sold FULLY FURNISHED (minus a few items/personal items) and would be ideal for either a primary home, secondary get-away home or an Air B & B rental for supplemental income. Hiking equipment, kayaks, fishing gear, etc can be stored under the deck or kayak shed. Property is minutes away from Chattooga Belle Farm, Chattooga River, Stumphouse Tunnel, Oconee State Park and Yellow Branch Falls trail. Walhalla is about a 10 minute drive for shopping, groceries and dining. Be sure to wear your walking shoes when you visit this home as you will definitely want to take a stroll along the half mile walking trail that meanders through the property.
