## Description

### Agent Description
Escape to the beauty of the North Georgia mountains in this stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath mountain cabin nestled on 3.16 private acres with breathtaking mountain views and common area access to the beautiful Ellijay River. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, this furnished retreat features a soaring great room with a cozy stone fireplace, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances in the spacious kitchen. The main-level master suite offers comfort and convenience, while expansive wraparound porches on both the main and lower levels invite you to enjoy mountain living at its finest. The main-level porch even includes its own outdoor fireplace for year-round enjoyment.                                                                           Upstairs you will find two guest rooms (one with private porch overlooking the mountains) and another full bath. Also upstairs is an open loft, perfect for reading, relaxing, or office area. Downstairs, the oversized den/game room is an entertainer's dream with a massive bar complete with wine cooler, refrigerator, and ovens — perfect for hosting family and friends. Step outside to enjoy the firepit area surrounded by peaceful wooded privacy.                                                                          Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or investment property, this exceptional cabin delivers the perfect blend of luxury, privacy, and outdoor living in the heart of the North Georgia mountains.
