Retreat-Like Setting Land and Home
597 Hills Lake Road : Ellijay, GA 30540
Gilmer County, Georgia

Lot Description
On the property is a primary residence (1,650 square feet) plus a detached garage with an apartment (650 square feet).
Live like you're in the middle of the wilderness but with the finest at-home amenities - Must See.
Between the main house & garage apartment, you'll have 2300 sq. ft. of living space. Immaculately cared for, this ranch home offers an open-concept living room/dining room with vaulted ceilings, wood-paneled walls/ceiling, exposed beams, a stone fireplace, and twig railing leading upstairs.
The oversized kitchen includes an island, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry.
The main floor owner's suite encompasses an attached office, bathroom en suite with a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a two-sink vanity. Head down the hall where you'll find a cozy half bath and laundry room combo.
The upstairs loft bonus room would make the perfect reading spot or craft area just off of the full bedroom with en suite bath.
The ground-level apartment behind the 2-car garage - complete with its own covered porch - would make the perfect rental unit or in-laws' suite when they come to visit. It includes a living room, a fully-equipped kitchen, and one bedroom with a full bathroom en suite. Best of all, it has its own generators should a storm roll through.
The newer hardscaping-a true feast for the eyes-includes concrete walls, parking, and a cart path for wandering the property with ease. Enjoy long swims in the saltwater pool (which offer many benefits including low maintenance costs) with a waterfall, a fire pit, and a gorgeous natural stone deck.
No doubt your favorite room will become the four seasons sunroom right off of the living room. It overlooks the deck and brings in loads of natural light. Because the property borders U.S. Forest Service land, rest assured you won't have any new construction nearby, preserving your peace and quiet-and privacy. Your new slice of mountain life will also include 2 waterfalls and a creek-all on your property.
Other features of this amazing home include a heat pump (very energy efficient), a new Hvac system, and a private well.
Seriously, your dreams of owning your own mountain home never looked this good.
