Some homes are simply built. Others are built around a dream-a private, treehouse-like retreat overlooking a picturesque creek reminiscent of the Montana wilderness. This family brought their creekfront dream to life, and now they're ready for another family to make special memories of their own. Completed in 2023, this beautiful Craftsman-style retreat offers an impressive 327 feet of frontage along Talking Rock Creek. Thoughtfully created as a place to slow down, gather with family, and enjoy everything that makes the North Georgia mountains so special, this is a home designed for making memories. Surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and exceptional privacy, the outdoor living spaces invite you to stay awhile-soak in the hot tub on the lower-level deck, gather around the firepit, or simply sit back and listen to Talking Rock Creek below. The owner has already had a trail cleared all the way to the creek, making those 327 feet of frontage an accessible part of the property rather than simply something to admire from above. Additional plans were never completed, leaving plenty of opportunity for the next owner to make it their own. Inside, the home feels fresh, warm, and inviting. The main level offers two bedrooms and two full baths, while the partially finished basement includes a full bath, den, storage, and unfinished space with flexibility for guest quarters, a home office, exercise room, or additional sleeping space. Located within Talking Rock Creek Resort spanning over 5,000 acres, the private creek beach and Trout Lodge are approximately a minute away, with a quieter pool and tennis courts just a couple of minutes from home. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, second home, mountain getaway, or potential short-term rental, this property offers a rare combination of like brand new construction, creek frontage, mountain views, exceptional privacy on a paved road. Creekside mornings, sunsets from the deck, evenings by the firepit, and star-filled nights-your private or income producing mountain retreat awaits.
