Property Description
Welcome to 22 Cartecay Cove Ct-Your Private Riverfront Retreat in the Heart of East Ellijay Tucked into a quiet bend along the Cartecay River, this serene, fully updated cabin knows it's something special-and it doesn't need to shout to be heard. Set on almost an acre of wooded waterfront with direct river access, a brand-new oversized retaining wall, and two-tiered decks leading down to the water's edge, this is the place where mountain mornings, kayak adventures, and lazy evenings around the fire pit flow effortlessly into your every day. The main level welcomes with a vaulted living area, warm natural light, and rustic hardwood floors that tell a story of their own. The kitchen is equally impressive-granite counters, an oversized island, rich solid wood cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances-all grounded in the heart of the home, alongside the inviting dining space and living room area. All of it opens to a doubled deck, via three sets of glass-pane French doors, overlooking the river and lush landscape-giving the whole home a treehouse feel. Four spacious bedrooms and two full, one half baths spread across three levels offer privacy for guests, family, and vacationers alike. The upper level houses a private bedroom and the loft, with French doors overlooking the living area. On the main level, you'll find the primary suite and a second full bath. The terrace level is a haven of its own, with a cozy bedroom, half bath, and a game room that opens onto a lower deck with a hot tub-perfect for soaking in the tranquil sounds of the river. Imagine an accessible walk-out terrace with natural slate tile floors and flexible living as a game room, bunk room, media area, or cozy den-and finally, your laundry room. Follow your staircase down to the riverfront, where a thoughtfully crafted new dock and oversized retaining wall overlook the Cartecay River. The generous build stretches across the river access, welcoming seamless and safe entry via railed and splayed staircase. The second-tier party deck also offers the perfect spot for overseeing the Cartecay. This home is your next weekend escape, complete with prime river frontage. Built with character and style in mind. It's more than a cabin-it's a lifestyle. Just 10 minutes to the lively, inviting Downtown Ellijay scene. River tubing, kayaking, and trout fishing from your backyard. All major systems updated, freshly painted exterior, and turn-key ready. No HOA, and generous parking space abutting the spacious bonus kennel.
