Property Description
Private Mountain Resort Compound, where legacy meets luxury and everyday life feels like a permanent retreat. Perched with breathtaking long range mountain views, this one of a kind lodge style estate comes complete with its own observation deck and bar overlooking a full 360 degree panorama, a community stocked lake, a pavilion, tennis and pickleball court, protected greenspace, a custom kids' playground, a private helipad, and the security of a gated community, all wrapped into one exceptional offering. The authentic Swedish Cope log home spans a spacious main level and finished terrace level, anchored by a primary suite on the main floor and abundant flexible space for family and guests. At its heart, a chef's kitchen with granite countertops and custom cabinetry flows into a great room warmed by a massive double sided stone fireplace, all beneath soaring log beam rafters and a wall of windows framing the mountains beyond. Downstairs, a sprawling den, recreation and game room, bunk space, and additional bedrooms make room for everyone. Step outside to oversized porches on both levels and wraparound decks on all four sides, plus an outdoor dining deck and kitchen built for entertaining under the stars. Tucked into the Chattahoochee National Forest, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of acres of rugged trails, clear running streams, and untouched natural beauty, this property is being sold fully furnished and turn key, ready to walk into and start living. Buyers will also receive a full floor plan, a rental projection, a brand new roof, a whole house gas generator equipped with 2 500 gallon propane tanks to power the house for a full year if necessary, a Kubota tractor and Side-by-Side for maintenance of the property, three additional buildable lots included with the sale, and control of the HOA, offering rare long term flexibility and influence over the community's future. This is more than a home, it is a legacy compound, an income opportunity, and a private mountain sanctuary all in one. Up to three additional cabins available in same community.
