This 3-bedroom 2-bath custom lodge home has natural wavy edge exterior lap siding, knotty pine interior and 2"x12" natural pine flooring, all milled on the property. The home has 2100+/- square feet of interior living space with primary on the main, and it comes complete with kitchen and bath granite countertops and all appliances. The interior is an open floor plan with a large loft and an open living room/kitchen with 25' ceilings. This space is accented with a large stone fireplace built with native stones from Coody Creek. The back of the home has a 10'x38' screened porch that runs the length of the house adjacent to an 8'x38' deck with hog wire rails. Behind the deck is a new concrete patio for your grills and smokers. There is a 2-car lean-to garage for parking and a heavy-duty 40'x40' steel beam insulated workshop with concrete floor and 16' high roller doors. The shop will provide space for all your equipment and toys, and it comes with 200-amp service and LED lighting. You will find a 6' outdoor fire pit overlooking the pond and woods to the west in the yard. The pond behind the house has regular visitors including Wood Ducks, heron, egrets, turtles, beavers and occasionally otter. Enjoy the 1/4-mile pine-lined driveway and more than 4 miles of groomed road/trails with 2 bridges that cross over the creeks that run through the property. You will also enjoy 7 established food plots (oats, wheat, cereal rye and clover), 9 deer stands & 3 feeders strategically located throughout. This property has been intensively managed and is in the 7th year of a comprehensive stewardship plan developed with the Georgia Forestry Commission for game and habitat management - and the pictures show the results. The ecosystems consist of mature hardwoods, creek bottoms/wetlands and 29 acres of thinned saw-timber grade merchantable pine. This mixture, food plots, and water sources provide an ideal habitat for high-quality deer, turkey, ducks, small game, fur-bearers and hogs (year-round hunting). Finally, besides being just under 2 hours from Atlanta and 45 minutes from Athens, GA, the property is only 2 miles from one of only two marinas on Lake Russell, a trophy fishing location for Striper, Spotted Bass and Crappie. Whether you love hiking, trail-riding, watching wildlife, shooting sports, hunting and fishing, or just relaxing outdoors, this property will provide year-round enjoyment for the entire family.
