Property Description

A rare opportunity to own a truly enchanting historic cottage with sweeping views of the Etowah River. Built in the 1920s, this residence captures the essence of its era while offering comfort, warmth, and carefully preserved character throughout. Step inside to find a welcoming layout filled with natural light. The home features three inviting bedrooms and two full baths, highlighted by a tranquil primary suite positioned at the rear of the home—an ideal retreat with its serene river backdrop. Rich hardwood floors run throughout, grounding the home in timeless beauty. The spacious kitchen offers abundant countertop space for cooking and entertaining, accompanied by a generous walk-in pantry that enhances both convenience and functionality. All kitchen appliances remain for the next owner’s ease. Nearby, an oversized hall closet serves as the laundry space, thoughtfully designed with extra shelving for organization. Host memorable dinners in the separate dining room, or enjoy slow, quiet mornings on the screened porch, where the sounds of nature set the tone for the day. Step outside to a setting that feels like a getaway. The back deck offers a postcard-worthy view of the river, creating the perfect backdrop for entertaining, morning coffee, or sunset relaxation. A detached one-car garage adds utility, along with extra driveway parking. The fenced backyard includes a charming lower sitting area—an ideal spot for a fire pit, intimate gatherings, or simply unwinding with a book while the river provides a soothing soundtrack. This one-of-a-kind property blending history, natural beauty, and everyday comfort in a way that’s increasingly hard to find.
