About This Home

Private Acreage. Thoughtful Design. A True North Georgia Retreat. Set on 4.56 acres in the peaceful beauty of Persimmon Valley, this inviting mountain home offers a rare combination of privacy, functionality, and timeless charm-equally suited as a full-time residence or the perfect "home away from home." With approximately 2,572 heated square feet and an additional 300-square-foot screened porch, the home is designed for effortless living. The main living areas open directly onto the porch, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection ideal for entertaining or enjoying quiet mornings surrounded by nature. A massive stacked stone fireplace anchors the heart of the home, elegantly defining the kitchen and living spaces while adding warmth and architectural character. The kitchen is both welcoming and practical, featuring abundant cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and convenient access through a casual mudroom entry-perfect for everyday mountain living. Pristine hardwood floors throughout the main level enhance the cozy, refined cabin feel. The main-level primary suite offers comfort and convenience with a spacious bath, private water closet, dual closets, and an accessible shower designed for ease of use at any stage of life. Additional main-level spaces include a flexible bonus room-ideal as a media room, den, or expanded dining area-along with a bright sunroom that brings in natural light year-round. The terrace level extends the living space with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a welcoming den centered around a cheerful gas stove-perfect for gathering on cool mountain evenings. Two generously sized craft or storage rooms provide exceptional flexibility. For those who have always dreamed of having a true workshop, this property delivers in a way that is increasingly hard to find. Just steps from the home, a substantial workshop offers its own half bath and heating stove-creating an ideal space for projects, hobbies, or even a home-based business. Additional outbuildings provide wood storage and ample room for expansion, limited only by your imagination. A separate one-car garage, positioned apart from the main home, offers even more flexibility for vehicle storage or additional workspace. Gardeners will delight in the endless succession of blooming plants and shrubs surrounding the house. An herb bed tops off the variety of plantings. Whether you are seeking privacy, functionality, or the charm of a well-designed mountain retreat, 42 Gobble Gap Road presents a unique opportunity to enjoy it all in one exceptional setting.
