About this home

Beautiful modern farmhouse cottage with seasonal mountain views in Coosawattee River Resort awaits you. Turnkey, FULLY FURNISHED, and full of charm — this beautifully appointed modern farmhouse cottage offers the perfect blend of rustic elegance and mountain retreat vibes. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, weekend getaway, or income-producing vacation rental, this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home delivers. Set on just under an acre in the highly desirable Coosawattee River Resort, you'll enjoy seasonal mountain views, privacy, and resort-style amenities — all just minutes from the main gate for easy access. Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, and a cozy yet open layout that invites you to relax and stay awhile. The main level features a welcoming family room with an antique wood-burning stove capable of heating the entire home — a truly special centerpiece with character and function. The kitchen is a modern rustic dream, complete with stained cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a beautiful tile backsplash. Just off the kitchen, a bonus room (currently used as a dining room) adds extra flexibility for your needs. The primary suite on the main floor includes a private ensuite with granite countertops, soaking tub, and a gorgeous oversized tiled shower. A convenient half bath is also located on the main level for guests. Downstairs, you'll find a second living area with a pool table, Cindy Crawford sectional, a spacious second bedroom, and another full bath with granite finishes. There's even a designated owner's closet for secure storage — perfect for Airbnb or part-time use. Outside, enjoy covered patios, a large private yard, and a firepit area ideal for starry nights and mountain air. A 2-car covered carport, additional parking pad, and low-maintenance landscaping complete the picture. As a part of the Coosawattee River Resort, you'll have access to multiple pools, tennis courts, a fitness center, walking trails, river access, and a full calendar of community activities — all tucked within a secure, gated setting. This is the mountain cottage you’ve been waiting for — fully furnished, beautifully designed, and ready to enjoy or rent right away
