This property captures Rabun County at its finest. Previously owned by a songwriter whose hits were recorded by Kenny Rogers, George Jones, and Tammy Wynette, the home sits directly along the edge of a beautiful trout stream. Two additional spring fed creek branches wind through the property, feeding fish ponds and nourishing a productive garden area framed by mature rhododendrons. The residence itself is rustically charming, a truly unique blend of styles featuring a two story log and stone cabin thoughtfully built into a multi level structure with beam accents and generous additions. Standing seam metal roofing covers the entire home, while screened porches, carports, and creekside stone paths create inviting spaces to enjoy the surroundings. As the last house on the road, it offers wonderful privacy with paved access via one of the best Forest Service roads in the area. From here, it is a short distance to impressive waterfalls and trout fishing on Darnell Creek, a rifle range tucked three miles into the woods, and continued access to the Bartram Trail and Warwoman Wildlife Management Area. A three bay garage, equipment pole barn, and fully functional workshop provide outstanding space for storage, projects, and hands on work. Down by the water, a pavilion creates the ideal spot to gather with friends or simply unwind. This has been a well loved mountain home filled with character and stories, yet its layout and setting invite fresh possibilities whether as creative studios, a base for hiking adventures, or a gathering spot for motorsports enthusiasts.
