Some homes offer a mountain view; this one makes it the centerpiece. Meticulously maintained and offered furnished, this retreat captures beautiful year-round mountain scenery and is ideally located between Blue Ridge and Ellijay. Set on 1.75 acres, the property offers plenty of space for the pups and convenient access to hiking and biking trails, Lake Blue Ridge, the Toccoa River, and the shopping, dining and attractions of both mountain towns, all within reach. Quality craftsmanship and modern rustic style create a thoughtfully planned mountain escape. Private ensuite bedrooms on the main and upper levels provide comfort and privacy. The main level is centered around a great room with soaring cathedral ceilings, warm wood interiors, a stone fireplace, and an impressive wall of windows that keeps the beautiful mountain view at the heart of the home. The open kitchen and dining area flow naturally into the living space and onto the expansive covered and wraparound porches, where an outdoor wood-burning fireplace creates the perfect setting for gathering in every season. The main-level primary suite features an ensuite bath with a spacious tiled shower and dual vanity. Upstairs, the guest suite features a soaking tub and balcony, while the open loft offers space to relax and enjoy the view. The finished terrace level is designed for entertaining, featuring a third bedroom, full bath, newly added custom bunk beds, a media and recreation room, wet bar, and gas-log fireplace. Three fireplaces, generous indoor and outdoor gathering areas, and sleeping accommodations make the home ideal for hosting groups while maintaining privacy. Step outside to the hot tub and unwind beneath the stars while enjoying the wooded surroundings and mountain backdrop. Its desirable location, multilevel layout, beautiful furnishings, amenities, and impressive views would make this home a great vacation rental, while also offering an exceptional private mountain getaway or full-time residence.
