Nestled among the trees on a quiet 1.48-acre parcel and just 60 miles North of Atlanta, this custom mountain home features over $200k in recent, thoughtful, upscale renovations.

A full bath features premium DaVinci Quartzite natural stone countertops, while hidden knee-wall storage offers plenty of room to store gear or easily add upstairs laundry. ***THE DAYLIGHT TERRACE LEVEL extends your living space with a large recreation room and a wellness sanctuary, featuring a 6-person "Almost Heaven" traditional steam sauna with an 8kW Harvia heater, a workout/yoga zone, a full-size built-in stainless steel refrigerator, a full bathroom, and access to a large, screened porch with the EZ-Breeze window system for all-season outdoor living, creating an interior space fully encapsulated in nature.
