Escape to the mountains in Blue Ridge, Georgia. If you have been looking to leave the hustle and bustle of city life behind, even if just for weekend getaways, you will not want to miss 554 Choctaw Ridge. This exceptionally well-maintained mountain retreat is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is surrounded by nature and gorgeous views. Located two hours from Atlanta in the popular Mountain Tops community, it is just minutes to Blue Ridge’s charming historic downtown with one-of-a-kind shops, delicious restaurants, art galleries, antique shops and a great community theater.
From the moment you arrive at this premier 1± acre lot, you will fall in love with its woodland setting. Take the winding paved driveway to the two-car garage and enter the home from the welcoming covered front porch. Accented with stacked stone, it greets guests with rustic appeal. Once inside, the foyer leads to a contemporary open-concept layout that includes a large living room, dining area and gourmet kitchen. Featuring hardwood floors, a cozy stone fireplace and built-in bookshelves, the living room is the perfect spot to gather by the fire or watch your favorite tv show. Double doors open onto a large rear deck that runs the length of the home, offering spectacular seasonal views of the majestic mountains in the background. The glass doors and adjacent windows not only extend your living area but blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The kitchen is a chef’s delight and features tile floors, wood-stained cabinets, stone countertops and stainless steel appliances. A large center island separates the space from the large dining area and provides a breakfast bar for casual dining or chatting with guests while you prepare dinner. The dining area can easily accommodate eight or more guests and has double doors that lead to the outdoor deck, which is great for grilling or dining al fresco.
The oversized owner’s retreat is conveniently situated on the main level. Large enough to accommodate a sitting area, it features a large bay window with a built-in bench and tray ceiling. The spa-like en suite bathroom has a double vanity, massive walk-in shower, custom-organized closet and access to a screened deck with a hot tub. A large laundry room and powder room complete the main level.
Head upstairs to find two secondary bedrooms and a full bathroom. Private space for guests, a home office or more, these rooms offer flexible options based on your needs. Or make your way down to the terrace level to find even more living space. Acoustically insulated, it is ideal for music performers, Zoom meetings or a home theater. Featuring a wet bar and recreation space with access to a large lower deck, the space is light, bright and comfortable. It also has several rooms that can be used as bedrooms, office space, a home gym, a family room or whatever best fits your lifestyle. There is even a full bathroom.
