Escape the hustle and bustle of life in your own private retreat nestled in the heart of Betty's Creek Valley, where the tranquil surroundings and traditional architecture create a private and peaceful place to call home. This brick 4-bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home was custom built in 2002 and meticulously maintained by the current owner. The 18.81-acre property offers a blend of rolling manicured grassy meadows, hardwood forest and adjoins USFS lands. From Betty's Creek Road, meander up a shared gravel driveway to a paved driveway lined with mature trees and lush native landscaping leading to the home. A detached two-car garage welcomes you home with an added breezeway connecting you directly with the kitchen. The kitchen features custom maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances, an island, a small kitchen desk, and a casual dining area, perfect for family meals. The open flow leads to a separate formal dining room, ideal for entertaining. The spacious living room features a high efficiency wood-stove insert, perfect for cozy evenings. It can also be divided to create more intimate settings for entertaining. You will find custom details on the main and upper floors to include glass door knobs, crown molding, and hardwood floors. Follow the center staircase to four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, offering comfort for the whole family. The primary bedroom's en-suite bathroom includes dual vanities and a charming clawfoot tub for ultimate relaxation. Don't miss the laundry shoot! The versatile basement provides endless possibilities for expansion, complete with an additional full bathroom, offering high ceilings, exposed ductwork, and outside access through storm doors. Equipped with dual-fuel heating, electric heat-pump, and a high-efficiency HVAC system, this home boasts impressively low power bills. It's also wired and fueled for whole-house generator installation. Behind the home wander along the manicured nature path leading to a quaint potting shed. Follow the path further to enjoy a cozy fire pit. As you continue further you will find a delightful kid's treehouse, or cross a charming covered bridge over a small creek bed. The property offers a secondary roadbed that leads to multiple additional building sites behind the primary home. This mountain escape is located less than 10 minutes from Rabun Gap Nacoochee School (RGNS), and within 15-20 minutes from Downtown Clayton. Also within close proximity are the Hambidge Center and Andy's Trout Farm.
