This cabin is priced below the appraisal value that was just completed! Looking for a creekfront mountain cabin in Blue Ridge with acreage right next to a wild life preserve and located on a quite dead end paved road, fishing access, and outdoor living space? 481 Johns Ridge Rd, located in Blue Ridge, GA, delivers the peaceful North Georgia mountain lifestyle buyers want with 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bath, 1,781 square feet of finished space, a basement level with a one-car garage that includes 2.3 private acres featuring 340 feet of frontage on Upper Madola Creek known for great fishing and relaxing creekside views. The finished basement is set up where the room with exterior door access could be used as a 4th bedroom or an office. This beautiful property has a half a dozen different types of Trilliums and has several different types of Azaleas, Hellebore Flowers, White and Purple Violets, several different colors of Columbine Flowers and even Blueberry Bushes! Built in 2008, this two-story cabin combines rustic charm with thoughtful updates. The updated kitchen includes two lazy Susan cabinets for added convenience and functionality with large creative sliding shelves for pots and pans and soft-close cabinet doors, while the stone fireplace creates a warm and inviting gathering space inside. The screened-in porch section overlooks the wide creek and stream, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee or quiet evenings surrounded by nature. Upstairs, the primary bedroom opens to a private balcony where you can enjoy the peaceful wooded setting and flowing water views. Outdoor living is a standout feature of this property, with a large wrap-around front porch for entertaining or just relaxing in the rocking chairs; it also has an outdoor fire pit area and plenty of room to enjoy the surrounding acreage. The property also includes a garden shed and separate workshop building for storage, hobbies, or projects. The custom hand carved Momma Bear and Two Cub Bears located outside are a $10,000 sculpture value that stays with this beautiful cabin. The driveway was newly paved in April 2026, adding convenience and curb appeal. Does this Blue Ridge cabin offer privacy while still being close to outdoor recreation and mountain attractions? Yes. This property offers the ideal balance of seclusion, creek frontage, usable land, and easy access to the Blue Ridge area lifestyle buyers continue to seek in the North Georgia mountains. The upstairs bathroom tile shower floor was also just replaced last month as well. The septic tank was pumped and inspected in July 2025. A top-of-the-line, brand-new GAF Timberline HDZ roof at a cost of over $14,000 was installed in April 2023 that also has a transferable warranty, too. This stunning property is move-in ready!
