There's a reason Blue Ridge has become one of North Georgia's most sought-after mountain destinations. For many people, it is no longer just a place to visit for the weekend — it is a place they can picture themselves living or owning a second home. This renovated North Georgia mountain home sits on roughly 2.5 private acres, just minutes from Lake Blue Ridge and about 15 minutes from downtown Blue Ridge. Lush green pastures out front, mountains behind, and the kind of quiet you can actually hear. Picture slow mornings in the sunroom with coffee, afternoons spent enjoying the property, and evenings on the large deck with the hot tub steaming, something on the grill, and the sun dropping behind the ridgeline. There is room here for cookouts, family gatherings, friends who do not want to leave, or simply enjoying the privacy. Inside, the home feels connected to the mountains around it, with exposed wood ceilings, beams, an open living-and-kitchen space made for gathering or spreading out, and a renovated primary suite to retreat to. But here is what you will not find on the next ten listings — room to actually do things. A covered pavilion/carport, detached garage and workshop or storage, additional outbuilding for two vehicles and much storage, lower-level flex space, and extensive covered parking. Boats, trucks, equipment, tools, a serious hobby, car collection or restoration project, or a home-based operation — there is finally space for all of it under roof. And you are surrounded by some of the best the area has to offer. A winery is about a mile north. A major hiking trail is about a mile south. The Toccoa River Swinging Bridge is just a few miles away and multiple nearby river-access points for trout fishing, rafting, kayaking, and tubing. Lake Blue Ridge is close by for boating, swimming, fishing, and marina days. Downtown Blue Ridge — with restaurants, breweries, galleries, shopping, and the Scenic Railway — is about 15 minutes away when you want it.
