About this home
Storybook Mountain Cottage with Long Range Panoramic Views! This enchanting 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath mountain cottage blends vintage European charm with modern comfort, offering a rare combination of privacy, character, and breathtaking long-range views. Set on over 5 acres—with an additional 2.5-acre lot available—the home feels worlds away yet sits just 9 miles from downtown Ellijay, 80 miles from Atlanta, and 60 miles from Chattanooga. Storybook inspired construction with gambrel roof, painted wood walls, and hardwood floors create a timeless appeal, while large custom steel windows and European French casement windows flood the interiors with natural light and frame sweeping long-range mountain vistas. Awe-inspiring views from every room with vaulted ceilings in the bedrooms, custom cabinetry with marble tops, and walk-in closets in both bedrooms and total of 2 fireplaces. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with over 700 square feet of porches and covered decks to enjoy year-round clear mountain views. Meticulously maintained and cared for by a single owner, with recent updates that include, new exterior paint (2025), a new well (2023), a regularly serviced HVAC system (installed in 2016), a new hot water heater (2019), an upgraded septic system, and a brand-new electrical service and meter base in late 2024. The home also offers a partially finished, conditioned basement for a 3rd bedroom or other future expansion. Located in a gated community with low annual dues, the property is minutes from Historic Downtown Ellijay and Carters Lake and close to hiking, mountain biking, boating, and swimming. The additional 2.5-acre lot is cleared with septic already installed, providing a ready homesite or future investment opportunity. With its rare privacy, panoramic views, and European-inspired character, this mountain retreat is truly one of a kind. Perfect for full time living, weekend getaways or potential top-producing short term rental investment property.
