About this home

As Summer gives way to Fall in the North Georgia Mountains, imagine crisp mornings on the porch, colorful mountain scenery, and cozy evenings around the stone fireplace. Nestled on 4.65 private acres in Ellijay, this beautifully furnished 3BR/3BA log cabin offers seasonal views of Stover Mountain in the gated community of Cartecay Lakes, featuring a peaceful community fishing lake. The main level welcomes you with an open-concept living, kitchen, and dining area anchored by a beautiful stone fireplace with gas logs. A primary suite, guest bedroom, and full bath provide the convenience of main-level living. The terrace level offers an additional bedroom, full bath, rec/bunk room, and laundry room, providing plenty of space for family and guests. Covered rocking-chair porches on both levels invite you to slow down, sip your morning coffee, and enjoy the changing seasons and mountain views. Just minutes from hiking, fishing, kayaking, tubing, and other North Georgia adventures, this cabin offers the perfect balance of privacy and mountain living. Recent updates include a new roof and Generac generator, both installed in 2023, plus an additional laundry hookup on the main level. Whether you're searching for a weekend escape or full-time mountain retreat, this is a place to relax, unwind, and savor every season in the mountains. Cabin is being sold furnished with the exception of a few personal items. For added peace of mind and privacy, short-term rentals are not permitted in Cartecay Lakes.
