Hardwood floors throughout with tile in the bathrooms. A generous sized main level master with large walk-in closet, and separate shower and soaking tub. The finished walkout basement includes a family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a bedroom, office/craft room, and storage, perfect for in-law suite or family gatherings.

Set on an elevated bluff with direct creek access (no road easement and not in a floodplain), this home features a wraparound porch, a firepit area, and a detached 2-car garage with an unfinished upper level—framed for a potential 1bd/1.5ba guest suite with electrical already roughed in.

Near Blue Ridge, GA and an abundance of hiking, kayaking, quaint shops, the John C. Campbell Folk School, and Harrah's Valley River Casino.
