491 Sandy Lake Lane, Blairsville

Situated on 3.67 pristine lakefront acres with breathtaking views of Lake Nottely and the Blue Ridge Mountains, this custom-built lodge showcases nearly 4,300 square feet of expertly crafted living space. Privately located within the exclusive gated Northshore community, the residence has been impeccably maintained by just two owners since its original construction. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings and massive windows frame serene mountain and lake views. Custom antler chandeliers and drawer pulls, custom-carved and wrought iron details, and handcrafted walnut finishes give the space an elevated rustic elegance. The open-concept main level centers around a striking Tulikivi soapstone fireplace, and the chef's kitchen is appointed with leathered granite countertops and top-tier appliances. Downstairs, the fully finished basement invites relaxation and fun, featuring a media/game room, wet bar, pool table, and poker table-perfect for entertaining guests or future renters. The outdoor living spaces are just as impressive. The main deck offers an outdoor wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy ambiance year-round, while the second deck is home to a built-in hot tub, positioned perfectly to soak in the mountain air. A large fire pit and private boat slip complete the lakeside experience, offering direct access to over 220 feet of shoreline. Please note: the water level on Lake Nottely varies seasonally. Some photos were taken during low water months, while others reflect the higher lake levels typically seen from Memorial Day through Labor Day. While never used as a rental, this property is ideally suited for short-term rental income. Located in a community that permits STRs with minimal restrictions, its layout, amenities, and furnishings make it a turnkey opportunity. Whether you're seeking a luxury full-time residence, vacation home, or future income generator, this lakeside lodge delivers on every front.
