About This Home

Nestled in the esteemed gated community of The Chattooga Club, this exceptional log home offers a rare blend of privacy, charm, and thoughtful design. Situated on a large, private lot bordering Lake Chattooga, the property provides stunning, tranquil views and the soothing sounds of water cascading over the dam. Each of the home's three levels is a suite, offering unparalleled flexibility and privacy for family and guests alike. The home boasts four fireplaces — one in the living room, another in the primary bedroom, a third downstairs, and the fourth on the inviting outside deck — creating cozy, warm spaces throughout. Upgrades within the last two years include a new pump for the septic tank, a brand-new generator, replaced gutters, and a durable fire-resistant CeDUR roof, ensuring peace of mind alongside its rustic elegance. Designed with nature and relaxation in mind, this home provides access to Lake Chattooga — perfect for fishing, canoeing, or exploring in the community jon boat with an electric motor. The lake, stocked annually with trout, invites peaceful mornings by the water. For breathtaking vistas, Mac's View is the ideal spot to gather with friends for a picnic or cocktails while admiring Whiteside Mountain and watching spectacular sunsets. The Chattooga Club offers an upscale, family-friendly atmosphere set against the beautiful natural scenery of its 200 acres. Residents enjoy access to amenities such as croquet lawns, a Life Enhancement Center with fitness equipment and spa services, gourmet dining, and the cozy Bear Bar. Recreational facilities include a saline swimming pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and scenic hiking trails. Seven guest suites in the Lodge provide luxurious year-round accommodations for visitors. Combining privacy, natural beauty, and exceptional amenities, this property captures the charm and splendor of life in The Chattooga Club. This is a rare opportunity to own a home like no other in this highly sought-after community.
