Escape to Chinkapin: A High-Elevation Sanctuary near Lake Burton. Enjoy privacy within the exclusive gated enclave of Chinkapin. Situated on 1.76 lush acres, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath retreat at 177 Whitetail Trail seamlessly blends design with the beauty of the North Georgia Mountains. The interior is defined by an airy, open-concept great room where soaring ceilings and rich hardwoods meet a wall of glass that frames the surrounding forest and seasonal winter mountain views. Each of the home's three levels features a private bedroom suite and dedicated sitting area, offering ultimate separation for guests. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the living space and out to an expansive system of decks, including a covered porch designed for year-round outdoor living. Evenings are best spent around the fire pit under a canopy of stars. High-utility features include a rare pull-through porte-cochere and a double garage on the walk-out terrace level, providing ample space for lake gear and vehicles. Location is everything: you are seconds from the prestigious Waterfall Club (members and guests only) and minutes from the deep-water marinas of Lake Burton (LaPrade's and Anchorage). Whether you are hiking the Appalachian Trail, fly-fishing the Tallulah River or enjoying the award-winning dining in nearby Clayton, Hiawassee, and Helen, this property serves as the ultimate basecamp for the refined adventurer. Experience the quiet luxury of a gated community with the rugged heart of the mountains just outside your door.
