Property Description
INVESTORS: STR-FRIENDLY! Imagine escaping the hustle and bustle to a place where the rustle of leaves and the gentle mountain breeze are your daily soundtrack. Tucked into the peaceful River Bend community just minutes from downtown Ellijay, this classic log cabin offers the ultimate North Georgia lifestyle, making it an absolute goldmine for an investor seeking a high-potential short-term rental. The location strikes the perfect balance for travelers, offering a secluded wooded retreat that is still incredibly close to local wineries, mountain biking trails, and the popular Whitepath Golf Club. Inside, the cabin oozes rustic warmth with its beautiful craftsmanship, from the custom woodwork on the walls and ceilings to the wide-plank floors that anchor the cozy living room with its stone-clad fireplace. Guests will naturally gravitate toward the outdoors, choosing between three distinct porch spaces to sip their morning coffee, host a sunset dinner while listening to the sounds of nature, or melt their worries away in the home's soothing hot tub. The clever layout includes a private lower-level bedroom suite with its own direct deck access, providing the exact kind of privacy and seamless indoor-outdoor flow that rental guests happily pay a premium for. For an effortless launch or a seamless personal retreat, this property is being sold furnished, excluding personal belongings and specific staging items, which are available for purchase via a separate bill of sale. Whether you are looking to expand your investment portfolio, secure a hybrid mountain getaway that generates passive income when you are not using it, or use it as your second home, this property delivers a turnkey lifestyle experience that's ready to serve your hopes and dreams.
