About This Home
Tucked away on a peaceful cove of Lake Hiwassee in the prestigious Bear Paw community, this lakefront home offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and natural beauty. A paved driveway welcomes you with split access, providing convenient parking at the main level and entry to the lower-level garage. Step into the expansive screened porch, where serene forest views surround you on three sides. Enter into the bright and open Great Room, with a vaulted wood ceiling, rich wood walls, and a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace. Sliding glass doors lead to a spacious deck overlooking the lake, with steps taking you down to the backyard and your private dock. The kitchen and dining area are filled with light, enhanced by plantation shutters on the windows. The kitchen has generous cabinet and counter space along with a convenient hanging pot rack. Down the hall, you'll find a laundry room with washer and dryer included, and built-in cabinets and shelving. This level also features a comfortable guest bedroom with deck access and a full bathroom. Upstairs, three more bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and friends, including one with its own private balcony, along with another full bathroom. The lower level expands your living options with a bonus room, a recreation room with access to a covered porch, and a single-car basement garage. Outside, enjoy a front yard fire pit area and a backyard that opens directly to the lake. Relax on your deck as boats drift by from the nearby marina, and take full advantage of lakeside living with your own private dock. Residents of Bear Paw Resort enjoy a wide range of amenities, including a pool, tennis and basketball courts, pickleball, marina access, a community pavilion, and miles of paved roads suitable for walking, biking, and golf cart use—all within a secure, gated community. This property offers a rare combination of location, design, and enduring views—an exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive lakefront home.
