~ LIVE LIFE ON YOUR OWN TERMS & ESCAPE THE EVERYDAY HUSTLE AND BUSTLE~ at this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat. Nestled on 6.41 beautiful, unspoiled acres with over 1,000 ft of cascading frontage along Jacks River, this private mountain oasis directly borders the Cohutta Wilderness within the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest. From the moment you cross the river, the setting lets you know you've arrived somewhere truly special. This charming 2BR/1BA chalet-style cottage blends modern rustic design with warm mountain character. An abundance of windows brings the outdoors in, while soaring cathedral ceilings, exposed beam rafters, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stacked-stone, wood-burning fireplace create an inviting centerpiece in the great room. Quality craftsmanship, natural elements, and thoughtful details give the home a cozy atmosphere filled with charm and character. The main level features a bedroom and bath, along with an open-concept great room, kitchen, and dining area, plus a spacious walk-in laundry room/pantry. The kitchen is appointed with custom cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and bar seating. A large glass-enclosed sunroom spans the front of the home, providing the perfect place to relax while taking in the peaceful wooded surroundings. Step outside and experience mountain living at its best. Expansive decks, walkways, and a firepit area meander around the cabin beneath towering hardwoods and native flora, creating inviting spaces for entertaining, relaxing, and reconnecting with nature. NO HOA. NO RESTRICTIONS. NO CLOSE NEIGHBORS. Just privacy, natural beauty, and room to breathe. Outdoor adventures are close at hand with nearby hiking trails, Lake Conasauga, and the surrounding national forest and wilderness areas. Property also features storage/potting shed & metal roof.
