Property Description
Tucked into the North Georgia mountains, this magical river retreat feels like something out of a storybook. Overlooking a rushing river with waterfalls and shoals just beyond the deck, the setting is pure serenity - where the sound of cascading water becomes the soundtrack to everyday life. Whether enjoying morning coffee wrapped in a blanket of mountain air or unwinding beside the fire after a day on the lake, this home captures the soul of mountain living. Perfectly located near Lake Burton and Mark of the Potter, the cabin has been thoughtfully renovated over the past three years while preserving the warmth and character that make it so special. Major updates include plumbing, electrical, flooring, paint, fixtures, appliances, and added foam insulation for comfort and efficiency. The foyer entry immediately sets the tone with handsome custom cabinetry offering exceptional storage and a welcoming first impression. Inside, the home has an easy, inviting flow designed for gathering and relaxing. The beautifully updated kitchen opens seamlessly to the great room and features a large breakfast bar, quartz countertops, and a charming blend of natural wood and soft blue cabinetry that feels both timeless and fresh. Two gas log fireplaces create cozy spaces on both levels, while expansive windows and outdoor living areas keep the river and waterfall views front and center. Outdoor living here is simply unforgettable. A screened porch invites long afternoon naps and peaceful evenings listening to the waterfalls - you may just want to sleep out there beneath the cool mountain air. The covered porch below offers another relaxing retreat, while the open deck becomes the perfect place to soak in the incredible views and constant soothing sounds of rushing water. The layout is ideal for hosting family and friends with two private master suites - one on each level - both with ensuite bathrooms. The main level also includes an additional bedroom, a full bath, and a half bath. Downstairs offers three more bedrooms and two full bathrooms, creating flexible accommodations for guests, multi-generational living, or vacation rental potential. Additional features include a Generac whole-house generator currently wired for the main level, with the option to expand service to the lower level as well. This is more than a cabin - it is a place to reconnect, recharge, and experience the beauty of the mountains and river every single day.
