About this home

Surrounded by nature inside the prestigious Goose Island Hideaway, this true log cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic charm & the soothing backdrop of riverfront living. Travel over the community's covered bridge & feel at ease as you pull up to this inviting retreat, where a wide front porch sets the tone for relaxed mountain living. Step inside to a welcoming foyer with convenient 1/2 bath, opening into a breathtaking great room with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, walls of windows & dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The dining space flows seamlessly to the screened-in back porch, your front-row seat to the peaceful sounds of the Ellijay River below. The kitchen has been designed as its own defined space while still maintaining an open connection to the great room & offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space & an island perfect for prepping & gathering, plus a convenient laundry room. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary, with vaulted ceilings & its own screened porch, and the ability to fall asleep while listening to the river. The ensuite bath is rich with character, featuring hammered copper sinks, tiled shower & soaking tub with TV. Upstairs, a catwalk splits two spacious bedrooms connected by a Jack & Jill bath, each with its own private vanity area, perfect for family or guests. The terrace level is built for entertaining, offering a large living area/sleeping space and a kitchenette. A 4th bedroom with double sliders to the outdoors, full bath & garage access complete the lower level. Step outside to enjoy the hot tub & outdoor living spaces, plus a small fenced spot for pets. Spend your days unwinding in a hammock, listening to the gentle rush of the river. Brand new roof! Goose Island Hideaway is truly a hidden gem in the N GA Mountains, offering privacy, natural beauty & a prime location equally convenient to both Ellijay & Blue Ridge for dining, shopping & year-round adventure.
