Property Description

Private creekside retreat on 1.5+ acres just minutes from downtown Dahlonega and the University of North Georgia. Surrounded by three creeks and backing to the protected Etowah River Basin, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Set high above a scenic riverbed, the home enjoys peaceful views of water, mature trees, and open sky-creating a tranquil mountain setting just seconds from a highly acclaimed local winery and less than 5 minutes to shopping, dining, and campus life. A standout feature of the home is the newly finished lower-level apartment (2023), complete with its own private French door entrance and separate keypad access. Ideal for rental income, student housing, guests, or multi-generational living, this space includes two bedrooms, a full kitchen with stove, oven, and refrigerator, a living area, and a newly installed full bathroom with pump system. The space has seen minimal use since completion, offering a nearly new living environment. Inside the main home, all carpets have been recently replaced and are in pristine condition, professionally installed for a fresh, move-in-ready feel. Exterior updates include gutters that have been professionally cleaned, repaired, and fitted with leaf guards approximately two years ago, helping reduce maintenance and enhance long-term durability. The land itself is truly special, featuring hundreds of feet along historic Crooked Creek, which feeds into Cane Creek-an area known for its ties to Dahlonega's gold rush history, where gold flakes have even been found in the clay used to construct the historic courthouse. The property also borders Salamander Creek and Otter Rock Creek, creating a unique setting rich in biodiversity and natural charm. Enjoy direct access to two large swimming holes with clear creek water, a scenic rock outcropping perfect for relaxing above the water, and a fire pit area near the creek for memorable evenings outdoors. Wildlife is abundant and frequently seen throughout the property, including river otters, great blue herons, and a variety of fish species. Bird enthusiasts will appreciate regular visits from wild turkeys, bluebirds, phoebes, pileated woodpeckers, and an abundance of ruby-throated hummingbirds-earning the property its local nickname, "Hummingbird Hill." Some hummingbirds have even been known to feed from handheld feeders. Seasonal mulberry and pawpaw trees add to the natural appeal and provide fresh fruit. Located just 10-15 minutes from the Etowah River, national forest land, hiking trails, waterfalls, and mountain biking, this property offers endless opportunities for outdoor recreation while still maintaining close proximity to town. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a peaceful mountain retreat, or a property with built-in income potential, this exceptional creekside setting delivers a rare opportunity to own a piece of North Georgia's natural beauty.
