Imagine waking to a cool mountain morning, sitting on your porch sipping a hot mug of coffee as you gaze over the pristine waters of Lake Apalachia. The only sounds you hear are the birds chirping and the occasional creaking of your rocker, and you smile, knowing that you have escaped the hustle and bustle of the city. This inviting lakeview cottage boasts 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths. The guest room comfortably accommodates two full beds, while the primary bedroom, large enough for a king bed, treats you to a picturesque lake view. Both bathrooms have been recently remodeled. The expansive kitchen features SS appliances, new dark butcher block countertops, a new sink and faucet, and ample counter space, perfect for whipping up delicious meals. An inviting living room, highlighted by a wood-burning fireplace, opens through French doors onto a screened porch, ideal for al fresco dining on cool mountain evenings. An additional open side deck, complete with picnic tables and string lighting, offers a charming space to relax outdoors. The property includes a fenced yard with a firepit, great for roasting marshmallows with family or enjoying a glass of wine with friends. There's also a 20x16 two-story insulated shop, with an upstairs area that can serve as extra storage or be finished as a bunk house for overflow guests, as well as a 20x30 oversized carport. Home and shop is wired for a generator. Appalachia Cove - a small, gated lakeside community in western Cherokee County, with community access to Lake Apalachia, a 10 mile long, deep water (full year-round) lake with very little boat traffic, perfect for swimming, kayaking, fishing, and boating, or simply unwinding amidst the breathtaking scenery. If you are searching for peace, quiet, and tranquility, this lakeview cottage is calling your name!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
