About This Home

As of May 2024

Ever dreamt of owning a quintessential rustic cabin in the mountains? Yeah, it's rustic but it has all the comforts of home. Picture yourself coming back to this porch & hot tub after a long day of hiking or hitting the area wineries. Located in a true mountain community with gravel roads (give that 4WD a test) in a totally private setting equidistant to the quaint downtowns of Blue Ridge and Ellijay. The Double Knob Mountain community borders 36,000 acres of Cohutta National Forest w/ access trails to the Benton MacKaye Trail AND we are 15 minutes from the newest winery, Roo Mountain. You can hear the creek making music in the valley from the deck or the wonderful firepit area. There is even a fenced-in area for the pups! Great roads for walking those pups too! This rustic retreat has 2 BRs on the main PLUS two sleeping areas in the loft upstairs. Large square footage for the $$. Currently a successful vacation rental and it's being sold turnkey! New furnishings, appliances, hot tub & tankless water heater make for a stress-free investment. Come to the mountains!
