Welcome to Covered Bridge Estates — Ellijay's most coveted gated community — where this stunning 2026-built home offers 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and over 3,200 finished square feet on 2.22 private acres surrounded by the natural beauty of the North Georgia mountains. From the moment you step inside, the craftsmanship speaks for itself. The open main level is anchored by a soaring natural stone fireplace beneath vaulted ceilings that draw the eye out to a covered deck — equally suited for quiet mornings and lively evenings. The chef's kitchen delivers on every front: Viking stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a large island with farmhouse sink, tiled backsplash, pantry, and a dedicated coffee bar. Two main-level ensuite bedrooms make single-floor living entirely achievable, each finished with frameless glass showers and designer tilework — the primary suite adding a freestanding soaking tub for a true spa feel. The terrace level expands your possibilities considerably. A third bedroom and full bath accompany a generous family room, flexible bonus space ideal for a home office or in-law suite, and a glass-front wine niche. A wet bar flows naturally to the covered patio, where a second stone fireplace creates a seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining experience that's nothing short of spectacular. Practical touches are equally considered — 2-car garage, mudroom, dedicated laundry, paved roads, gated entry, and underground utilities throughout the community. Minutes to downtown Ellijay, Carters Lake, and the region's celebrated vineyards. No short term rentals allowed.
