Smith Lake (Brushy Creek) If this home was a yacht, the name would be ''Authenticity''. Truly what a lakehouse should be! Sitting on two waterfront lots right across from The Bankhead National Forest! This cottage is tucked away in a deep water cove with crystal clear water. Main level has brick pavers, fireplace, and soaring windows. A cozy covered outdoor area extends your living space. Make sure to look at the pavilion with hot tub. What a view! This home is an ideal candidate for a short term rental. Come see now! Hot water heater, washer, dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, and hot tub are less than 3 years old. Property has shoreline protection. Offered furnished!
As close to the water as you can get! Just amazing!
