Nestled within the exclusive, small gated community of Chinkapin at Lake Burton, this stunning 3-bedroom, 3-bath home at 177 Whitetail Trail offers an extraordinary lifestyle where a beautiful forest surrounds you, and long-range winter mountain views become your seasonal backdrop. This is more than a home; it's a sanctuary defined by natural beauty, serene moments, and a vibrant community. Step inside and be captivated by the open-concept living area, where soaring ceilings and elegant hardwood floors create an expansive, inviting atmosphere. A cozy fireplace anchors the great room, which seamlessly flows to a large deck and a covered porch, all framed by the lush forest and a wall of windows that invite year-round sunshine.

Enjoy the charm of Clayton, GA, a small town community with an abundance of activities for every age, including wonderful restaurants, concerts, shopping, local farmers' markets, and entertainment.
