About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to your serene mountain escape in the highly desirable Blackberry Mountain subdivision—an inviting, friendly community known for its covered bridge entrance over the Cartecay River, all paved roads, underground utilities & several community ponds. Nestled among Ellijay's renowned apple orchards, vineyards & outdoor adventures, this delightful home is the perfect blend of rustic charm & modern comfort. Perched on the edge of a spring fed small lake/pond, this sage green wood-sided cabin w/metal roof & wraparound porches offers a warm, woodsy feel with tons of potential for enhanced water views from the house with tree trimming. Step inside to a light-filled open floor plan w/soaring cathedral ceilings, abundant windows & tasteful drywall finishes throughout. The spacious great room centers around a cozy stone wood-burning fireplace & flows seamlessly into a dining area & large U-shaped kitchen featuring breakfast bar seating, generous cabinetry & counter space, & gas stove—ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The oversized screened-in porch spans the length of the house & provides a perfect setting to soak in the natural beauty year-round. The main level includes a large bedroom & well-appointed bathroom w/dual sinks, tub/shower combo & a convenient laundry closet. Downstairs, discover a cozy sleeping nook, additional full bath & a spacious guest bedroom with French doors leading to a stunning tongue-and-groove sunroom—ideal for a home office, reading nook, or craft/hobby space. From there, step onto another covered deck that leads to the backyard & a serene path around the lake/pond. Ample closets throughout & a large storage/mechanical room with exterior access ensure there's plenty of room for all your gear. Enjoy peace, privacy, no STRs & natural beauty while being just a short drive to downtown Ellijay & all that North Georgia has to offer. Whether you're looking for a full-time home or weekend retreat, this one is not to be missed!
