Property Description
This private mountain retreat sits on three secluded acres and combines character, seclusion, and flexible living spaces. The primary residence is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom cabin with dramatic beamed cathedral ceilings that give the interior an airy, welcoming feel. An open floor plan connects the kitchen, complete with pantry and dining space, to the rear porch and garden areas. The main-floor master bedroom links to both a laundry closet and a sunroom for a tranquil private space. The backyard spans one fenced acre and showcases an impressive botanical collection with specimens from across the globe. Two koi ponds are connected by a dramatic 22-foot waterfall, creating a peaceful spot for unwinding. The upper level features a bright loft space with large windows, plus a bedroom and full bath, while the lower level includes a recreation room, another bedroom with its own exterior entrance, a bathroom, and a work area. These upper and lower levels could each function as independent living quarters, perfect for extended family or generating additional income. A separate guest cottage, constructed in 2010 and measuring 554 square feet with one bedroom and one bathroom, currently brings in $800 monthly from a tenant. The existing lease may be continued or ended upon sale. The property also includes a backup generator and a covered garden structure suitable for a hot tub. Situated within the beautiful Coosawattee River Resort community, this home provides access to numerous resort facilities and works equally well as a full-time residence or an income-producing investment through vacation or long-term rentals.
