Step outside and follow the sound of the rushing stream—this is where this property truly comes alive. Tucked into a remarkably quiet and secluded setting, yet just half a mile from the main highway, the home offers the rare balance of easy access and true mountain privacy. With United States Forest Service land bordering the back, the setting is framed by untouched forest and the steady sound of water. Just a short walk—about one-tenth of a mile—from the front door leads into the National Forest, where you're surrounded by nature in every direction and the quiet, peaceful setting truly stands out. A natural path leads to the creek, where native rhododendrons, azaleas, mountain laurel, and Japanese maples create a timeless North Georgia landscape. Outdoor living is effortless—gather around the fire pit, relax on the swing, or enjoy the sitting deck as the stream flows just beyond. For outdoor enthusiasts, access is exceptional. The Appalachian Trail is just minutes away, with nearby entry points at Dick's Creek Gap and Tom Cowart Gap. From here, enjoy easy access to Lake Chatuge, Lake Burton, and nearby Clayton, Blairsville, and Helen. Inside, the cabin is designed for comfort and connection. The main living area features a glass-front wood stove and a secondary living space that opens to the outdoors. The game room and laundry area include doors leading directly to the back deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. Upstairs, three bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, including a standout third bedroom with its own sitting area and private screened deck—perfect for listening to the creek and unwinding in quiet. Most furnishings are available, making it easy to settle in immediately or continue its successful short-term rental use. Whether full-time or a weekend escape, the home offers flexibility and proven appeal. This is a place defined not just by where it is—but by how it feels to be there. Come experience it for yourself.
