Private homestead with incredible access to all the SC mountains have to offer. Four miles from the Chatooga river put-in for kayaking or fishing, several miles from Yellow Branch falls for hiking and Stump House tunnel for hiking and mountain biking, and close to Oconee State park with all of that and more. Walhalla Fish Hatchery, where the rivers' trout are raised is another must see. This 3 bedroom/2 bath open floor plan home sits on over an acre of land and is bordered by two creeks. It is in the Mountain Rest Lake Association giving you easy fishing, canoeing and paddleboarding on this private mountain lake. The property has blueberries, a chicken coop, pecan trees and raised beds just waiting for you to settle in to the mountain lifestyle. There is also an RV or EV hookup for you or guests. The original home was built around 1927, however, over the generations updates and additions have been made. The home has been updated with today's current finishes while providing a nod to its iconic history. The cabinets are reclaimed wormy chestnut. The decorative fireplace was uncovered to reveal the original masonry. Bead board accents, pine paneling and wooden ceilings are throughout the home. With all of the activities nearby and the private lake, this would also be a great short term rental. This home is 20 minutes to Walhalla, 30 minutes to Clayton, GA and 35 minutes to Highlands, NC - perfect, you get to decide where you want to go for dinner and can try them all.
