Property Description
A rare mountain compound where timeless architecture meets nearly 15 acres of unspoiled North Georgia beauty, Little Bear & Big Bear offer two distinctive residences across two tracts with complete privacy, roaring Little Mountaintown Creek frontage, private walking trails, rolling meadows, and secluded hollers. Big Bear, a sprawling rustic log chalet, features five bedrooms and four baths, a soaring great room anchored by a stone fireplace, gourmet kitchen, generous dining space, walls of glass, and expansive decks immersed in the landscape. The primary suite includes a large private office, while the terrace level offers a full bar, guest wings, and walk-out stone patio. Meandering steps descend through the property to the rushing creek and lush meadow below. Little Bear provides a bright, contemporary contrast with two charming bedrooms, a shared bath, and attached double carport. Sold fully furnished with select exclusions, this extraordinary retreat offers endless possibilities as a family compound, luxury STR investment, corporate retreat, private venue, or unforgettable full-time mountain estate.
