Nestled on a secluded three-acre lot, this unique mountain property offers charm, privacy, and versatility. The main home, a three-bedroom, three-bath cabin, features soaring beamed cathedral ceilings that create a spacious and inviting atmosphere. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which includes a pantry, dining area, and direct access to the back porch and garden. The master suite on the main level connects to the laundry closet and a sunroom, providing a peaceful retreat. The fenced one-acre backyard is a nature lover's paradise, featuring a diverse collection of trees and plants from around the world. A stunning 22-foot waterfall cascades between two koi ponds, offering a serene setting for relaxation and reflection. Upstairs, a large loft with expansive windows includes a bedroom and bathroom, while the finished basement offers a family room, an additional bedroom with a private entrance, a bathroom, and a workshop. Both the loft and basement have the potential to be used as separate in-law suites, making this home ideal for hosting guests or generating rental income. A detached one-bedroom, one-bath guest house, built in 2010 and spanning additional 554 square feet, currently produces $800 per month in rental income. The lease can be assumed or terminated at closing. Additional features include a generator and a garden pavilion that can accommodate a hot tub. Located in the pristine Coosawattee River Resort, this property offers access to a variety of resort amenities and presents an excellent opportunity for a primary residence or an investment with both short- and long-term rental potential.
