Property Description

Where the river bends and the mountains rise, you’ll discover a place that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and stay awhile. Set along a remarkable stretch of the Chauga River in scenic Mountain Rest, this enchanting waterfront escape delivers the peaceful, private setting so many buyers hope to find. Whether you envision a personal hideaway, a fully furnished Airbnb investment, or a gathering place for unforgettable weekends, this property stands ready to welcome you. Positioned on 1.14 acres with approximately 400 feet of river frontage, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath mountain home balances relaxation and adventure. From the moment you arrive, the gentle sound of moving water and the cool mountain air create a calming first impression. Enjoy morning coffee on the rocking chair front porch, spend afternoons floating or fishing along the riverbank, and gather for outdoor meals while the water provides a peaceful soundtrack. Inside, the home blends warmth and character with thoughtful updates. Brazilian cherry hardwood floors and granite countertops create an interior that feels both inviting and refined. Ceiling fans provide comfort throughout. The home is offered fully furnished, making it easy to begin enjoying immediately or to continue operating as a short-term rental. Outdoor living takes center stage. Expansive decking overlooks the trees and river, creating an ideal setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply taking in the surroundings. A fire pit encourages evenings under the stars, and a hammock provides a peaceful spot for an afternoon break. The property also features a durable metal roof, an outbuilding for storage, private well and septic, and ample space to explore and enjoy the natural setting. Located just minutes from Oconee State Park, the home offers convenient access to hiking trails, waterfalls, and year-round outdoor recreation. Despite the sense of seclusion, nearby shopping, dining, and everyday essentials remain within reasonable reach. The property is zoned for James M. Brown Elementary, Walhalla Middle, and Walhalla High School. This property delivers more than a place to live. It offers a lifestyle shaped by the rhythm of the river, evenings around the fire, and time spent making lasting memories in the mountains. If you’ve been searching for a true waterfront mountain retreat, this special property invites you to become part of its story.
