“The home is stunning.” “The cabin is an absolute gem.” “The views you will have from the living room or back porch are breathtaking.” “Wonderful all around!” The reviews speak for themselves and tell the story of the experience waiting for you at this turnkey/fully furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bath mountain home with stunning year-round views. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental with nothing but glowing reviews, this “rare find” is ready to continue as an investment or become a full-time residence or personal mountain getaway. The home features a spacious main-level primary bedroom and newly renovated full bath, along with a warm and inviting living area where large windows bring the mountain setting inside. Step out onto the expansive deck with plenty of room for dining, lounging, and evenings gathered around the fire table. An additional flex space off the carport offers more versatility and would make a fantastic bunk room, game room, home office, or kids' retreat. The finished terrace level offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath, providing plenty of space and privacy for family and guests, along with an additional living room with direct access to the back patio. From there, settle into the hot tub for a front-row seat to the mountain sunsets. Set on a double lot totaling more than an acre, the property offers added privacy and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. A flat driveway and two-car carport make coming and going just as easy and relaxing as being at the cabin. Located in Walnut Mountain, one of Ellijay’s most desirable gated mountain communities, tucked beneath a beautiful canopy of mature trees and surrounded by abundant wildlife. The community offers paved roads, walking trails, streams, a community pool, tennis courts, and more. Guests have plenty to say about the location, too: “The location was perfect—peaceful, private, and surrounded by amazing views that made it easy to relax and unwind.” “The house was located in a great neighborhood that was off from the city but close enough to still do everything in Ellijay and Blue Ridge.” “We loved staying in a gated community that had its own walking trails and community pool. One walking trail is right up the road!” While clearly loved by its guests, this cabin has been loved even more by its owners. It has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully improved throughout their ownership, including a brand-new roof, a beautifully renovated bathroom, and personal touches throughout. It is as move-in ready as they come, and the photos capture only a fraction of the mountain charm, easy living, privacy, and convenience this home offers. One guest summed it up best: “We were so absolutely blown away by our trip and experience staying at this ‘slice of paradise’ at Walnut Mountain.” Whether you’re looking for a proven short-term rental where you won’t have to lift a finger, a full-time mountain home, or a getaway of your own, this is a special place that will check every box—and then some. Some homes simply need to be experienced in person, and as one guest put it, “The home and its surroundings are even better than the photos—pictures honestly don’t do it justice!” Come experience it for yourself—schedule a showing today!
