About This Home

Set on a wooded acre in the North Georgia mountains, this furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bath cabin with a loft is ready to enjoy from day one. The 1,264-square-foot home sits beneath a mature canopy of hardwoods and Eastern hemlocks, giving the property plenty of privacy and a true mountain setting. Inside, the living room centers around a wood-burning stove, while an updated heat pump HVAC system and tankless water heater provide efficient, year-round comfort. Two private decks offer space for morning coffee, outdoor meals, or quiet evenings surrounded by the trees. The large two-car garage has a finished concrete floor and plenty of room for vehicles, outdoor gear, kayaks, or a workshop. The cabin has also been used as a short-term rental and is being sold fully furnished, making it easy for a new owner to continue using it as a mountain getaway or prepare it for future guests. Any new owner wishing to operate it as a short-term rental will need to apply for the required Rabun County permit and public accommodations license. The property is close to some of the area's best-known destinations, including Angel Falls, Minnehaha Falls, Tallulah Falls, and Lake Rabun. The shops, restaurants, and wineries of downtown Clayton are also an easy drive.
