| Nestled in the coveted, gated Goose Island Hide Away community, this expanded mountain retreat offers a rare blend of acreage, privacy, and convenience between Blue Ridge and Ellijay. Set on 2.64 gentle, usable acres with beautiful hardwoods and community river access, the property feels tucked away and peaceful while still being easily reached by paved roads within the community. Located off the main entrance road, this home enjoys a quieter setting with minimal pass-through traffic, adding to its private mountain feel. With very few homes beyond it and a peaceful wooded backdrop behind and past the property, the setting offers a sense of seclusion and breathing room that is hard to find. The main residence is a warm, lodge-style home with pine interiors, a full finished basement, and generous square footage designed for comfortable full-time living or a relaxing mountain getaway. Multiple indoor and outdoor living areas flow to expansive decks and porches overlooking the wooded grounds, creating inviting spaces for relaxing, entertaining, wildlife viewing, or simply enjoying the seasons. A major value-add is the oversized detached 2-car garage with an impressive finished upper-level studio apartment, guest suite, or artist studio, complete with additional living, sleeping, and kitchenette-ready space. Combined with the main home, the property offers over 3,000 square feet of heated living space. With its combination of privacy, low-traffic location, acreage, community river access, substantial square footage, detached garage, and flexible guest-style quarters, this property stands out as a compelling offering in Cherry Log. |
