Property Description

Settle into a rocking chair on the front porch, take in the mountain view, and step inside this log-sided cabin that has been a single family's vacation home since 2002, gently used and well cared for. Inside, the family room rises to a vaulted ceiling with a fireplace, and hardwood floors run throughout. The eat-in kitchen sits just beyond, and the main floor holds a nice sized bedroom and full bath. Off the main level, a screened porch takes in the mountains. Some days the loudest sound you'll hear is rain on the metal roof. Upstairs, the primary suite is joined by a smaller third bedroom or office and a loft that overlooks the family room below. French doors open to a private upper porch with an incredible mountain view. The unfinished basement holds the washer and dryer and comes stubbed for a bath, ready to finish. Out back, three levels of decking step down the slope with short and long-range mountain views. The long-range view just needs a few trees felled for the stunning full reach to return. Set on 2.64 wooded acres up a quiet paved private road in Fortenberry Creek Retreat, with only a handful of neighbors. The mountains in view belong to the Chattahoochee National Forest, so those hills stay wild. Deer, bobcats, and bear pass through, and a mountain storm puts on a light show with thunder rolling from ridge to ridge. Central HVAC, propane, septic, shared community well. Nearly all furnishings convey. Minutes to three local vineyards, GA515/I575, downtown Blairsville, the Lake Nottely marina, Brasstown Bald, Lake Chatuge, Helen, Hiawassee, and the North Carolina border.
