A wraparound deck and screened porch invite you to enjoy the scenery in every season. The thoughtfully designed layout features 3 bedrooms and 3 baths in the main home, with 1 bedroom and bath on each level. A separate 4th bedroom and bath above the detached two-car garage provides added privacy for guests, a home office, or bunk room. A brand new furnace and heat pump recently intalled serving the entire home. The terrace level is made for entertaining, featuring over 1,000 square feet of outdoor living space complete with a hot tub, full bar area, fire pit, and multiple gathering spaces. Ample parking is a valuable bonus for hosting family, friends, or future rental guests. Additional features include a whole-house generator, partial furnishings, easy paved access from the Legion Road gate, and abundant wildlife, including Coosawattee's famous deer that often wander through the property.
