Welcome home to the mountains and to beautiful Bent Tree. This Dutch Gambrel log home is perched on the hillside with long-range views stretching to the Atlanta skyline on clear days. Closer in — and nearly always on display — is the mountain formation locals call "the reclining lady." You'll know her the moment you see her. Step inside to a wall of windows framing those same views, flooding the space with light that brings the warm wood finishes to life. This 3,200-square-foot retreat offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, two decks, two screened porches, three living areas, and a game room. A 2022 renovation added 1,000 square feet — including a possible bedroom, den or tv room, full bath, and private deck — plus a new HVAC system, water heater, exterior paint, and two new decks. The main level's dining area flows into the living room and kitchen, and out to the screened porch or deck for easy indoor-outdoor living. A stone fireplace anchors the room, and two bedrooms plus a full bath round out this level. Upstairs, soaring windows fill the sitting room and screened porch with light, alongside the private primary suite. The upstairs is so unique that the interior pictures for the home actually start on that level. You will be spending a lot of time up there! The lower level is built for entertainment: a game room, movie room, possible bedroom, full bath, and another deck already wired and reinforced for a hot tub. The home can be purchased fully furnished with custom, high-end furniture and fixtures — move-in ready. Tucked inside the gated community of Bent Tree near Jasper, GA, residents enjoy a true resort lifestyle across 3,500+ acres: the 110-acre stocked Lake Tamarack for fishing and boating, a Joe Lee-designed golf course, indoor and outdoor tennis and pickleball, two pools, a sandy beach, waterfalls, hiking trails, a dog park, bocce, basketball, a playground, boat storage, and a full-service restaurant and bar. Spacious enough for the biggest family gatherings, this home also has an established history as a short-term rental — a great option if you're looking for it to help pay for itself. Come take a look. Maybe it is time for you to “Come Home to the North Georgia Mountains.”
