As you arrive, the mountains and lake unfold before you, hinting at the beauty that greets you at every turn. Stepping through the large entrance foyer, sunlight filters across tongue-and-groove walls and beamed ceilings, giving a sense of warmth, space, and care. Your eyes are drawn to the great room, where a stone fireplace anchors the space, and walls of windows frame a view that could never be captured in a photograph-Brasstown Bald rising in the distance, long-range peaks stretching, and the lake glimmering. To your left, the dining area opens onto one side of the screened porch. A ping pong table waits for afternoons of laughter, games, and friendly competition, blending fun with the serenity that surrounds the home. On the other side, the owner’s suite steps onto its own screened porch, a private perch for morning coffee or quiet reflection as sunlight dances across the water. Inside, the suite offers a fireplace and small kitchenette, creating a self-contained space that feels like a personal retreat. Descending to the basement, you find a modern living area and kitchen, along with three sleeping rooms, offering flexibility for guests or family, keeping the home’s focus-the connection to the lake, the mountains, and life outdoors. Outside, the land slopes gently toward the lake, where a two-slip dock with a large sun deck awaits, perfect for boating, lounging, or sunsets. Evenings might be spent around the fire pit under a starry sky or enjoying a spontaneous swim. Every step outside brings a new perspective, whether a long-range mountain vista or the sparkling lake reflecting light. Throughout the home, every detail encourages you to pause: the crackle of a fireplace, the soft mountain breeze through porch screens, laughter from a game of ping pong, and quiet moments when it’s just you and the view. This is a home designed to be lived in, experienced, and cherished, where everyday life feels extraordinary-the mountains and lake are always at your doorstep.
