Experience the Ultimate Mountain & Lake Retreat in the Cohutta Wilderness. Perched on 4.6 acres adjoining Hills Lake and more than 20,000 acres of National Forest, this 3BR/2.5BA mountain retreat offers rare privacy, sweeping year-round lake and mountain views, and direct access to some of North Georgia's most iconic hiking and biking trails. A brand-new porch invites you to relax and soak in ever-changing scenery. Inside, European-inspired styling blends seamlessly with rustic mountain charm, all supported by high-speed fiber network for modern convenience. The open-concept main level features a spacious kitchen, dining area, and a stunning wood-burning stone fireplace—perfect for cozy evenings after days of adventure. A convenient half bath, already stubbed for a full, and an adjoining covered porch create the potential for a future main-level primary suite, adding even more versatility to the floor plan. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private haven with a vaulted beadboard ceiling, peaceful sitting area, and spa-like bath with a soaking tub and separate shower. This private suite also captures sweeping mountain views and overlooks the lake. Two guest bedrooms, a full bath, and a versatile loft offer plenty of space for family and friends. Step outside and the adventure begins: private trails lead directly into the Cohutta Wilderness, where endless hiking, mountain biking, trout fishing in Mountain Town Creek, and canoeing on your private lake await. After exploring, unwind on the expansive deck and take in the quiet beauty of the forest and lake below. Tucked away at the end of a long gravel road yet only 11 miles from downtown Ellijay's dining, shops, and wineries, this property strikes the perfect balance between seclusion and convenience. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast or simply craving peace and tranquility, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers the ultimate North Georgia mountain lifestyle.
