In the amount of time it can often take to get across town, you could be breathing clean mountain air, teeing off, casting a line, lounging lakeside or relaxing with guests in the North Georgia mountains. Just an hour outside of Atlanta in the town of Jasper, Georgia, is Big Canoe – a residential community that is unlike any other. It is the kind of place where you can escape the pressures of everyday life and become civilized by nature – it is the private residential getaway of your dreams!
With the enviable combination of outdoor activities and resort-style amenities, Big Canoe truly has it all. From trails, lakes and streams to a golf course, tennis courts and fishing, there is plenty to explore and enjoy. And as a thirty-year-old growing community, Big Canoe also has more than fifty social clubs and a calendar packed with events, performances and festivals year-round.
Located at 2782 Wilderness Parkway is a unique opportunity to own your very own mountain retreat in Big Canoe. Situated on a picturesque 2+/- acres, this spacious home offers fabulous views while still offering proximity to all the amenities the community and surrounding area have to offer.
Recently updated, this spacious cedar and stone cabin welcomes you with a covered front porch, ideal for loading and unloading groceries and other belongings without worrying about the weather. As you enter the home, you immediately notice the soaring vaulted pine ceilings and open-concept main living space. Combined with refinished, white-washed wide plank pine floors, freshly painted pine walls and an open staircase, it offers the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern style.
The cabin’s open layout provides a continuous flow between the kitchen and living room, creating one big space – perfect for gatherings. The kitchen boasts painted cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. An extra-long breakfast bar makes serving a hungry crowd easy, and you will love the additional storage and prep space it provides.
Anchored by a cozy stacked-stone fireplace and rustic mantel, the comfortable living room makes you want to curl up with a good book and a crackling fire. Featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights, this light and bright space is both warm and inviting.
A separate dining room with a vaulted pine ceiling sits just off the kitchen/living area. This charming room provides seating for 10+ people and offers direct access to a screened porch. Open the sliders and enjoy the fresh mountain air and treetop views right from the table.
The owner’s bedroom is located on the main floor and features sliders to a large deck, new carpeting and an en suite bathroom with a stand-alone soaking tub, a walk-in shower and double vanities. A guest bedroom and an updated second bathroom are also on the main level.
A newly remodeled open staircase leads to an upper-level loft providing flexible space that can be used as an additional bedroom, a seating area or an office space. An expansive daylight basement has a recreation room, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom; great for entertaining!
There is also plenty of outdoor living space to enjoy the gorgeous greenery and magnificent views. A vaulted screened porch provides a quiet sanctuary where you can enjoy being outside without giving up the comfort of being inside. And a large, freshly painted outdoor deck provides a great spot for grilling, dining al fresco or relaxing after a long day of hiking.
