Privacy, polish, and 2.97 usable acres minutes from Cashiers and Lake Glenville. A paved drive lined with stone walls and Japanese maples leads to this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home set on two combined lots in The Knolls of Cedar Creek, backing to a 50-plus acre tract that keeps the setting quiet. The back deck catches a peek-a-boo winter view of Lake Glenville, which sits just down the ridge with 26 miles of shoreline five minutes away. Downtown Cashiers is 10 to 12 minutes. Inside, two levels of living space read as turn-key. The main floor opens to a vaulted, knotty pine great room with a wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors, and an updated kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances, kitchen island, breakfast bar, and stone-tile backsplash. The eat-in dining area connects to the covered deck. The primary suite sits on the main level with a walk-in closet and jetted tub. Downstairs, a fully finished walkout lower level adds a game room sized for a pool table, a granite bar, a family room, a private office behind glass-paneled French doors, and a bonus room currently used as exercise space. A workshop, mechanical, and utility rooms tuck the systems away. Outside: front porch, covered deck, lower patio with fire pit, and gentle, landscaped grounds with mature rhododendron and native plantings. The second lot leaves room to add a guest house, garage or workshop. Starlink high-speed internet stays with the home. Recent updates touch the kitchen, baths, flooring, and basement. Listed below recent appraisal. A strong year-round home in one of the best-positioned pockets between Cashiers and Lake Glenville.
