WATERFRONT LUXURY! Perfectly situated above the rushing waters of Mountaintown Creek, this home delivers a lifestyle as rare as the trophy trout that swim past your backyard. 4 Bedrooms 4 Baths 4 Fireplaces! Set within the intimate, gated community of Fish Tale Cove, this showpiece residence is just minutes from downtown Ellijay yet feels worlds away. With all paved roads, high-speed internet, and unbeatable access to nature, it’s the perfect blend of convenience and serenity. Step inside to soaring 16′ ceilings, walls of glass overlooking the water, and a dramatic stone fireplace that anchors the open-concept great room. The gourmet kitchen shines with Z-Line appliances, custom cabinetry, and a gathering-sized island-ideal for entertaining family or guests. Four en-suite bedrooms provide privacy and comfort, while the primary suite is its own spa-like retreat with a soaking tub, tile shower, and rustic-chic finishes. The terrace level is an entertainer’s dream with 10′ ceilings, a stylish bar, a stone fireplace, and direct access to the outdoors. Expansive porches-including two covered party porches with fireplaces-invite you to enjoy the sights and sounds of the rushing rapids year-round. Outdoors, over 900 feet of walkable trails along the creek and a private river beach invite endless adventure-cast a line, launch a kayak, or simply relax to the music of the water. With all-usable frontage (a rarity in mountain properties), this is river living at its finest. Few properties offer such direct access to Mountaintown Creek, a protected Class A Trout Stream prized by anglers for its year-round habitat. With its rushing waters and reputation as one of North Georgia’s premier trout streams, this is among the most sought-after waterfronts by both locals and visitors. Investment Bonus: Projected short-term rental income of ~$95K annually makes this property both a luxury retreat and a smart investment. Not just a home, a lifestyle-Fish Tale Cove.
