Escape to the serenity of 658 Chattooga Lake Road—a charming log cabin perfect for weekend getaways or full-time living. Nestled on 1.25 acres bordering Sumter National Forest, this home offers both privacy and access to the pristine waters of Lake Chattooga. Featuring two full suites, a loft, and 2.5 bathrooms, this home is designed for comfort and relaxation. The property includes lake privileges, with a community dock, picnic shelter, and fire pit just across the street. Step onto the inviting front porch and picture yourself savoring your morning coffee while catching glimpses of the shimmering lake. The wooded landscape creates a picturesque setting with no grass to mow, just a moss-covered yard and a private, tree-lined drive. Inside, the soaring wood ceilings, hardwood floors, and open floor plan create a warm and welcoming space. The living room is anchored by a propane fireplace and built-in entertainment nook, flowing seamlessly into the dining area, which provides access to the side and back porches. The well-equipped kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a versatile center island—securely placed yet designed with wheels for flexible arrangements to suit your entertaining needs. A spacious laundry room/pantry, additional storage closet, and a half bath are conveniently located just off the kitchen. The main-level suite is bright and airy, featuring dual walk-in closets (one cedar-lined), a corner jetted tub, and a separate shower—a perfect retreat to start or end your day. Upstairs, the second suite offers ample space for guests, with room for bunk beds, air mattresses, and more. It includes a private bath with dual vanities, a tub/shower combo, and an oversized walk-in closet. The loft area is a cozy nook ideal for reading, gaming, or even converting into a third bedroom with a simple addition of walls. This space also features access to a private balcony. Step outside to the back porch, where you can enjoy uninterrupted views of Sumter National Forest. The current owner has added a fenced-in area for pets, which still allows easy access to the tall crawlspace—a great storage area with access to the home’s mechanical systems. Lake Chattooga is known for its exceptional water quality, where you’ll find minnows, carp, mallards, and abundant wildlife in its crystal-clear waters. With easy access to Highlands, Cashiers, Clayton, and all that Oconee County has to offer, this is the perfect place to call home.
