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 Wait, it doesn't stop there - Take a look inside!- Home now has updated light fixtures, sellers removed outdated carpet and replaced it with gorgeous LVP flooring on the lower level.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!
