1049 Rockwater Road, Ellijay GA 30536, Ellijay, GA 30536
Nestled high in the North GA mountains, this extraordinary log cabin offers the kind of retreat rarely found in the Southeast, complete privacy, long-range layered mountain views, the sound of rushing waterfalls outside your window & the timeless warmth of mountain architecture. Set among towering treetops w/cascading creek & natural waterfall running alongside the property, this 3-level residence is a complete escape from stress, traffic & summer heat, yet remains an easy drive from Atlanta for weekend escapes or extended seasonal living. The classic chinked log exterior welcomes you inside to the vaulted great room w/exposed hand-hewn beams, large-plank wood floors & river rock wood-burning fireplace. Custom steel French doors throughout the main level pour in natural light, connecting indoors w/the lush outdoors. Plenty of gathering space surrounds the fireplace, while an add'l casual dining/lounge area offers even more room to relax. The kind of mountain home families hold for generations. Upstairs, the spectacular primary suite feels like its own private retreat w/architectural details that continue throughout the spacious loft-style layout. Featuring cozy sitting area, generous sleeping quarters & unforgettable Smoky Mtn vistas. With aprox 2,400sqft across 3 levels, the cabin offers ideal flexibility for entertaining guests, hosting grandchildren, or simply enjoying quiet weekends in nature. The setting combines dramatic beauty w/genuine serenity: mountain air, moving water, mature forest & the sense of escape that luxury buyers increasingly seek but seldom find. Located near Ellijay, one of N GA's most sought-after mtn destinations, the property offers access to hiking, wineries, fly fishing, charming restaurants & thriving 4-season mountain lifestyle. Whether envisioned as a private family retreat, seasonal residence, or legacy mountain property, this is not merely a cabin, it is an experience of mountain living that feels increasingly difficult to replicate
