Some homes are polished and predictable. This one is neither-and that's exactly its charm. Tucked away on 2.01 wooded acres, this quirky little creekside cabin feels like something you might stumble upon in a storybook. Follow the private gravel road, cross the small creek ford, and suddenly the world feels a little farther away. Surrounded by a lush, naturally wooded landscape with the creek winding through and U.S. National Forest land along the property, the setting feels peaceful, private, and made for slowing down. Inside, approximately 1,400 sq. ft. is filled with rustic character-pine-paneled walls, exposed log beams, and a wood-burning stove. Two bedrooms and two full baths are on the main level, while the loft offers additional sleeping space. New HVAC was installed in 2025. The real magic may be outside. Sip your morning coffee on the screened porch overlooking the creek, relax on the deck, or end the day gathered around the large fire pit beneath the trees. Just a short drive from Tallulah Gorge State Park, Lake Rabun, Lake Burton, waterfalls, hiking, and downtown Clayton, there's plenty to explore when you want to venture out. An important update- the home is NO LONGER designated FEMA Flood Zone A .Offered fully furnished and turn-key, this cabin isn't trying to be something it isn't. It's rustic. It's quirky. It's wonderfully quaint. And for the buyer dreaming of a little mountain hideaway where the creek runs by and life feels simpler, it just might be the one. New price reflecting new septic and new roof.

Spring updates!!! Lets see what living just minutes to Lake Rabun and Tallulah Falls can bring you with this home that rest atop Long Mountain. The Sellers utilized the cold season as a productive time and they updated several things! They've cut trees, hired a professional team to come in and reseal the exterior basement walls, and sealed the interior walls also! Had an excavation crew come in and widen the driveway. The fresh landscaping just harmonizes so well with the natural surrounding landscape and it looks fabulous! Wait, it doesn't stop there - Take a look inside!- Home now has updated light fixtures, sellers removed outdated carpet and replaced it with gorgeous LVP flooring on the lower level. Removed carpet from stairs and had those stained also. There's one thing that didn't change (thankfully) and it's that fantastic view! This spectacular 3 bedroom home has 2 bedrooms on main and one on lower level. Each bedroom has it's own private bath. Features a wrap around drive, and mountain views to the north. Did I mention that each level has washer/dryer closets? Lower level has a great bonus/family room with a nice deck. The sunroom off the master has it's own peaceful vibe. Even if it's cool outside, you can still enjoy that natural outdoor beauty and we know that's best enjoyed with a hot cup coffee and a great book! The view is just as stupendous from the living area with the gas log fireplace. No need to worry about old man winter or the warm season thunder storms or downed trees, this house has a whole house 22kw generator. Lower level has a handy Workshop/mud room off lower deck/porch. This mountain master piece is surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes of mtn ivy, laurel rhododendron, and hardwoods. . Owner has all maintenance and history records for the home since it was built. I can't think of one more thing you'd need other than you being here to make this the perfect mountain home!
