About This Home
If you've ever cruised Lake Hiwassee by boat, you've admired this home from afar—one of the most iconic chalets overlooking the pristine waters. Now imagine calling it yours—it's the first time it has ever been offered for sale! Hidden in the heart of exclusive Bear Paw Resort and set on three spacious lots, this fully furnished 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath lakeview retreat is a masterpiece of mountain architecture designed to showcase views photos can't capture. From its elevated perch, the chalet commands sweeping, unobstructed southwestern views of sparkling Lake Hiwassee, framed by thousands of acres of U.S. Forest Service land-protected forever to ensure your panorama remains untouched. Inside, a soaring Great Room welcomes you with a wood vaulted ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Towering chalet windows flood the space with natural light and frame the scene like living art. Glass doors extend the living area onto your porch-the perfect place for morning coffee, sunset wine, or simply breathing in the peace of the mountains. The kitchen is both beautiful and functional with granite counters, a large island, and abundant cabinetry-ideal for gathering family and friends. The main-level Master Suite is a private sanctuary with dual vanities, a garden tub, and walk-in shower. Upstairs, a loft landing opens to another ensuite bedroom, while the lower level offers a spacious rec room, third bedroom, full bath, and oversized 2.5-car garage. Thoughtful upgrades include a whole-home Generac generator and 3-zone HVAC for comfort and peace of mind. Outside your door, Bear Paw Resort offers a lifestyle unlike any other: a sparkling pool, tennis and basketball courts, Pickleball, marina, pavilion, paved walking and biking roads, and golf-cart-friendly streets—all within a private, gated community known for charm, beauty, and camaraderie. This isn't just a home-it's a statement. And now, it can be yours.
