Property Description

More than just a cabin—this is a custom-built, meticulously maintained mountain retreat offering quality craftsmanship, privacy, and exceptional versatility. Situated on 2.5 acres in the desirable Coosawattee River Resort, this property includes three separate lots, creating a rare opportunity for investment, future development, or a private family compound. Relax on the wraparound porch and enjoy the peaceful setting, where wildlife is a regular visitor. Inside, you'll appreciate the attention to detail and pride of ownership found throughout the home. Recent updates include new stainless steel appliances, an HVAC system replaced in 2024, and a roof that's only five years old, giving buyers added peace of mind. The full propane tank is included, making this home ready to enjoy from day one. The property also features a 12' x 24' storage building with electricity and lighting, providing excellent space for a workshop, hobbies, or additional storage, along with a detached two-car carport. What truly sets this property apart is the land. The 2.5 acres consist of three individual lots, with one lot on each side of the home. Keep them all for added privacy, sell the additional lots separately, or build additional homes for a total of three residences—ideal for an investment opportunity, vacation rentals, or creating a family or friends' mountain retreat. Located in Coosawattee River Resort, you'll enjoy an abundance of amenities while having your own private mountain escape. This is not your ordinary cabin—it's a property with outstanding flexibility, long-term value, and endless possibilities.
