A thoughtfully designed mountain cottage awaits in the charming Maple Springs community just below the entrance to Black Rock Mountain State Park. This one-bedroom, one-bath home offers a comfortable and flexible layout with abundant natural light and soaring ceilings that create an open, airy feel throughout. The owner expanded the original footprint of the home with a generously sized bedroom and an adjacent flex room that could easily serve as a walk-in closet, yoga studio, home office, or additional sleeping area. The living spaces flow comfortably together, making the home feel larger than its footprint while maintaining the cozy charm of a mountain retreat. Outdoor living is a highlight here. Enjoy morning coffee or cool mountain evenings from the sitting porch, while two additional smaller porches provide quiet spots to grill or set up a cafe table. There's also a small creekside yard that's perfect for a firepit, sitting area or space to walk your furry companions. Located in the Maple Springs community just minutes from downtown Clayton, this home offers easy access to hiking trails, waterfalls, and outdoor recreation at Black Rock Mountain State Park while still being close to Rabun County's vibrant dining and shopping scene. Whether you're searching for a weekend escape, a full-time residence, or a low-maintenance mountain getaway, this inviting cottage offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy life in the North Georgia mountains. Short term rentals are not permitted in Maple Springs.
