1900 Long Ridge, Hiawassee, Georgia

Description

Above the ordinary. Wrapped in nature. Unlike anything else in the North Georgia mountains. Perched at nearly 2,700 feet atop a private mountain, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat offers something that's becoming increasingly rare: complete peace. Surrounded by trees, long-range mountain views, and the sounds of nature instead of traffic, this remarkable circular home feels like your own private lookout in the sky. From sunrise coffee on the wraparound deck to evenings beside the fire pit under a canopy of stars, every space invites you to slow down and breathe a little deeper. Inside, natural light pours through walls of windows, bringing the outdoors into every room. Warm oak floors, an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, and the home's unique architecture create a setting that is equal parts mountain lodge and modern retreat. Whether you're hosting family for the holidays or escaping for a quiet weekend, every room feels connected to the landscape surrounding it. The spacious wraparound decks on both levels become an extension of the home, offering countless places to relax, entertain, watch wildlife, or simply enjoy the ever-changing mountain views. Walking gardens and peaceful outdoor gathering spaces make every season feel like a vacation. The home features two bedrooms, two baths, plus a generous bonus room that can easily serve as a third bedroom, office, or creative studio. The unfinished lower-level garage and workshop provide abundant storage and endless possibilities for hobbies, fitness space, or future expansion. Practical features include a wood-burning stone fireplace that is already plumbed for gas conversion, public water with an additional private well, whole-home generator readiness, and recent interior painting. Although you'll feel miles away from everything, you're less than five miles from downtown Hiawassee and only minutes from Lake Chatuge, public boat ramps, hiking trails, golf, wineries, restaurants, Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa, and the North Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, a mountain getaway, or a place to reconnect with nature, this is far more than a home. It's a retreat you'll never want to leave.
