Breathtaking mountain views, +/-5.71 private acres, and an idyllic setting surrounded by nature define this charming cottage in Holly Berry Estates. Enjoy sweeping views of Black Rock Mountain to the south and Whiteside Mountain to the southwest, framed by native rhododendron, lush ferns, mossy pathways, and the soothing serenity of a bordering stream. The two-level cottage offers a warm and inviting main level with oak flooring, a primary bedroom and bath, and an open living and dining area anchored by a gas-log fireplace. Glass doors open to a spacious deck overlooking a gardener’s paradise and the spectacular mountain landscape beyond. Relax with a morning coffee or evening glass of wine while watching clouds drift across the dramatic rock face of Whiteside Mountain while enjoying the cool mountain breezes. The finished lower level provides a comfortable guest retreat with a generously sized bedroom, full bath, bonus room for additional sleeping space or office, and family room opening to a stone terrace with firepit—an inviting setting for gathering beneath the stars. Surrounded by natural beauty, this peaceful retreat offers an exceptional opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the best of mountain living. Recent improvements include a new roof, A/C Unit, toilets, water heater, driveway culvert and fresh gravel. THE SELLER IS OFFERING A $30,000 CREDIT AT CLOSING FOR DECK REPLACEMENT. Holly Berry Estates offers two private community lakes for canoeing and fishing and is conveniently located near the Chattooga River Trail and Falls, Cashiers Sliding Rock and the historic Grimshawe's Post Office. With abundant privacy, remarkable mountain views, and easy access to outdoor recreation, this is a true nature lover’s retreat. Offered furnished minus staging items.
