Proudly presenting this freshly updated rustic mountain true log cabin retreat overlooking the iconic cascading noisy creek everyone is looking for! This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin is perfectly positioned between Ellijay and Blue Ridge in the highly sought after Lake Buckhorn subdivision. With direct access to the beautiful Lake Buckhorn and 3.5 miles of scenic hiking trails throughout the community. If you're looking for more of an adventure the Benton MacKaye Trail offers hundreds of miles of hiking located just a few miles up the road. As you enter the subdivision, on all paved roads, enjoy seasonal views of Lake Buckhorn and the North Georgia mountains. Easily access this home via a partial wrap-a-round deck. Step inside, admire the wide plank real wood pine floors, large wood windows, tongue and groove walls, pine cabinets, and cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams. Enjoy the real wood burning stone fireplace on those cooler Fall and Winter nights. The main level includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom with updated granite countertops, sink, and accessories. The upstairs includes a large open loft that serves as the third bedroom with its own full bathroom, also with updated granite countertops, sink and accessories. The open concept living room and kitchen area has been updated with granite countertops, fireclay sink, and new stainless steel appliances. All kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, interior doors, and the entire outside of the house and deck have all been freshly stained. Venture outside to the lower deck to take a tip in the hot tub, hang out by the firepit, or to simply enjoy the soothing sounds of Bryant Creek as it collides against rocks along the backside of the property. This property would be perfect as a primary residence, short term rental, or vacation getaway. Please call us today so we may answer any questions you have, send you some videos of the creek, or schedule a viewing! Owner / Agent
