River front living at it's BEST on the sought after Cartecay River. 495 Feet of river frontage along with a rare, level/flat lot creating a beautiful setting for enjoying all that North Georgia river life has to offer. A spacious wrap around deck that extends the living space outdoors and provides plenty of room for entertaining, relaxing, and taking in the sounds of the river. The lower level provides easy access to the grounds while the home's unique design adds character and mountain charm. This four bedroom, three bathroom home offer two acres of land with easy access to the river and downtown Ellijay. Unlike some more remote mountain properties with steep, winding approaches, this home offers a more convenient route for everyday travel. The current owners also report very few power interruptions during their five years of ownership and have appreciate the property's accessibility during the winter weather. This is a wonderful opportunity for buyers to enjoy mountain living while straying connected to everything Ellijay has to offer. *Priced under appraisal value*
