Property Description

Welcome to the Mountains! - Nestled in the heart of Walnut Mountain-one of Ellijay's most desirable gated communities-this charming mountain home perfectly blends rustic comfort with modern updates. Renovated and thoughtfully expanded in 2013, it comes fully furnished, including a washer and dryer, making it move-in ready from day one. With 2 bedrooms, 2 fully renovated baths, and a flexible lower-level space, this home offers comfort, character, and room to grow. The main level features a cozy living room with a gas log fireplace, a spacious family room bathed in natural light, and a quaint kitchen with granite countertops and an adjoining dining area. The oversized primary suite includes a private ensuite bath, offering a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. Upstairs, you'll find a second bedroom, a beautifully updated full bath, and a versatile loft space-ideal for a home office, reading nook, or creative corner. The lower level includes a one-car garage/workshop, a convenient half bath, and a bonus room that opens to a private side sitting porch, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or relaxing in the evenings. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a classic rocking chair front porch, a screened-in porch for year-round enjoyment, a carport, and a gently sloped paved driveway for easy access. Located within the private, gated Walnut Mountain community, this home includes access to fantastic amenities: paved roads, high-speed internet, a whole-house generator, swimming pool, scenic hiking trails, peaceful lakes, and even a campground. All of this is just minutes from Historic Downtown Ellijay, local apple orchards, mountain biking trails, and award-winning wineries. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or investment opportunity-this home is your gateway to the mountain lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
