About this home

Rare opportunity in Coosawattee River Resort to own a true mountain retreat with sweeping mountain and river views that simply do not come along often in this community. This thoughtfully maintained 2-bedroom, 2 bath Mountain Craftsman Cottage sits on 1.17 acres in the desirable Eagle Mountain section, just a stroll from the Rec Center with its heated indoor pool, fitness center, tennis, pickleball, and 18-hole mini golf. From the covered porch and open deck, watch the seasons unfold over the water and ridgeline in a setting that feels worlds away from everyday life. Inside, hardwood and carpet floors, tongue and groove wood ceilings, a cozy gas insert fireplace, and walls of windows frame the view from nearly every room. The kitchen features a gas range for the home chef, and a 672 square foot partially finished basement with a full bath, outside entry, and flexible drive-in access offers tremendous potential for vehicle storage, a workshop, expansion, or guest quarters. Outside, beautifully maintained landscaping, a 10 x 16 storage shed, and a striking red metal roof complete the picture-perfect curb appeal. The sale includes a second adjacent 1.26 acre lot, bringing the total acreage to approximately 2.43 acres. The vacant adjacent lot offers exciting possibilities for personal use, investment, or future plans, subject to Coosawattee River Resort POA architectural review and Gilmer County guidelines, with buyer to verify all intended uses. Enjoy 12 miles of the Coosawattee River, four river parks, a stocked fishing pond, RV park, year-round security, road maintenance, and all the amenities that make Coosawattee one of the most sought after gated communities in the North Georgia mountains. Properties with views, acreage, and convenient Rec Center access at this level rarely become available. This is a true mountain retreat waiting for its next owner. (Basement office has been virtually staged to show potential.)
