25 ACRES ON THE U.S. NATIONAL FOREST go with this handsome and rustic cabin. An idyllic mountain setting - right on top of a flat mountaintop in a secluded area of beautiful woodlands with space to roam. ****UNDER CONTRACT****

When you think of a cabin this the one your mind wants to picture - rough sawn board and batten siding, massive chimney of real masonry and stone, and a lengthy covered front porch with room to kick your feet up and prop on the thick slabbed railing.

The authentic mountain cabin continues inside. High vaulted ceilings and a real stone fireplace immediately catch your eye. A closer inspection details the fact that the siding within the home is of high-dollar tongue and groove rough sawn red oak planking. Wood plank flooring, an open den area, and a loft bedroom complete the feel. There are a total of two bedrooms (one on the main level) and one bath and the cabin has a spacious open feel with some 1300 square feet of space, plus or minus.

The land is all wooded with a mixture of tall conifers and hardwoods and sprinkled with evergreen mountain laurel below. The cabin sits on a rounded mountaintop and there's plenty of gentle terrain across the top and extending out two ridgelines. To the northwest you can see the main line of the Blue Ridge Mountains through the trees and the property joins the Chatahoochee National Forest on its northern boundary.

The area is very scenic, private and secluded but with good access via County paved roads and a neatly graveled driveway. The location is about equidistant between Dawsonville and Dahlonega at the edge of Dawson County and not far from Amicalola Falls State Park. The Blue Ridge mountains are very close in and you see them going to and from the cabin. From this property you can step onto U.S. National Forest lands and hike up to the "Hike Inn" out from Amicalola Falls, or go all the way to Maine via the Appalachian Trail.

As a place of your own to enjoy all of Nature's goodness this one ranks in the upper echelon. $259,000.
