1048 Laurel Trail, Ellijay

Some properties are simply rare-and this is one of them! Set on 5.62 Park-Like ACRES with frontage on BOTH sides of Oliver CREEK, this fireside log home feels more like a private nature preserve than a home, surrounded by hemlocks and wild ferns with the soothing sound of rushing rapids that you can see and hear from the full-length covered porch and screened porch. The backyard offers a true retreat, complete with a firepit and picnic area-like your own private campsite in the forest. This 3BR/2BA log home (with a spa bath) has been meticulously maintained, never used as a rental, and is being sold fully furnished for true move-in readiness. The great room features a wood-burning fireplace, complemented by two additional wood stoves, while the kitchen offers silestone countertops and stainless appliances, and multiple living spaces including a loft sitting/game area and a finished basement family room provide flexibility for entertaining and relaxing. The oversized primary suite is upstairs, with two bedrooms on the main level. Additional highlights include a metal roof, private well, FIBER internet, Generac generator, electric car charger, laundry hookups on both levels, covered parking for three vehicles, and ample parking for boats, campers, UTVs, and outdoor toys. With no HOA, no restrictions, and short-term rentals allowed, this property offers exceptional flexibility for full-time living, a second home, or an income-producing retreat. And you can rest knowing this home sits above the creek and has never flooded. ***Some homes speak to the soul the moment you arrive-this is one of them, and it must be experienced in person to truly appreciate how special it is.***BACK ON MARKET at no fault of the Seller.
