Property Description
Welcome to an extraordinary mountain retreat in the prestigious Coosawattee River Resort, where luxury meets the tranquility of the North Georgia Mountains. This is more than a home; it's a private sanctuary offering magnificent long-range mountain panoramas from nearly every room. Step onto the quintessential rocking chair front porch before entering this sprawling four-bedroom, three-bathroom home. The main level is a triumph of open-concept design, drawing you past the oversized living space, anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove, and straight to the wall of windows that frame the breathtaking year-round mountain views. The gourmet kitchen is seamlessly integrated, making entertaining effortless. The true highlight is the outdoor living space: a massive, covered main-level back porch complete with a hot tub and dedicated outdoor dining area, where you will spend countless evenings watching the sunset over the Mountains. Adding immense value and flexibility, the terrace level is thoughtfully configured as a complete second living area. This space includes its own large kitchen, a spacious living room with an electric fireplace, 2 bedrooms, and a full bath. It's the perfect setup for in-laws, guests, or a lucrative rental opportunity, with a private walkout to the lower deck, also boasting stunning long-range mountain views, and access to a 1-car garage. Set on a generous 2.69-acre lot, the property includes RV hookups and a large, detached 2-car garage with abundant storage above, perfect for a workshop or future conversion. As a resident of Coosawattee, you gain exclusive access to premier amenities for year-round enjoyment, including a heated Olympic-sized pool, a fitness facility, private river access, pickleball courts, and much more. This is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey luxury home that delivers both the ultimate mountain escape and highly flexible living arrangements.
