Description
This home is the picture of rural, private life. Homesteaders, Hunters or Air BNB investors looking for an incredible rural getaway that is centrally located for access to multiple towns as well as abundant forestland, this spectacular hand-crafted cottage with additional guest quarters above a sizable custom garage/shop is calling your name. Privately situated on approximately 5 acres, amenities include the spectacular cottage, workshop with guest quarters, fantastic private stocked pond, forest of hardwoods and wildlife. Built to withstand the test of time and the elements, both structures are constructed from the finest quality building materials, including heavy duty I-beam supports for the second level of both the cottage and the guest quarters above the garage/shop. The lower level of the cottage and the upper level of the guest quarters are both floored with beautiful and durable ceramic tile for cleanliness and long-life. The upper level of the cottage features breath-taking hardwood maple flooring. All wiring in this getaway masterpiece is composed of heavy-duty 12-gauge wiring. The owner has specifically added an abundance of receptacles of both 15-amp and 20-amp capability throughout the shop/guest quarters to ensure that no power tool will ever overload a circuit or breaker. Durable green tin roofs on both structures provide long-term protection from rain, sleet, hail and any need of replacement for many years to come. The cottage lap siding is durable and decay-resistant cypress, and the guest quarters/shop has long-lasting HardiPlank cement siding. The interior of the cottage features custom-built cozy nooks and shelving for stashing endless reading material, knick-knacks, and treasures. A wood-burning stove provides abundant supplemental heat for the entire cottage if necessary during emergency circumstances. A full guest bath with its tumble-tile shower and beautiful ceramic flooring is conveniently located on the main level. It is supplemented by another full bath on the upper level which is highlighted by an elegant claw-foot bathtub with all accoutrements. A cozy kitchen offers ample counter and custom cabinet space, including a breakfast bar. Upstairs, two delightful and yet peaceful bedrooms are so quiet that sleep is almost automatic after a hard day of hunting or fishing. The guest quarters bedroom above the shop features beautiful shiplap walls, as well as a marvelous turn-of-the-19th-century roll-out window salvaged from a historic bungalow in Atlanta's Ansley Park. The guest quarters are heated and cooled by a mini-split air conditioning system, and the cottage by a heat pump. The bath in the guest quarters is highlighted by a captivating granite countertop, vessel sink, and marvelous hidden shower. Both the main cottage and the guest quarters also are each serviced by their own separate tankless water heater .The cost-free water is also endless, supplied by two separate deep freshwater wells that also service the lawn irrigation system.

The circuit servicing the shop/guest quarters includes a separate special side circuit disconnect and receptacle for the connection of an electrical generator (not included) for emergency electrical power.
