Somebody has just been through this house properly, and the work is already done. The kitchen is new - gray shaker cabinets, white subway tile, counter space you can actually work on - and it opens through an arch into the living room, so whoever is cooking is still part of the room. The floors are the find. Wood, original to a 1945 house, running through the whole place with a color you cannot buy new. Fresh paint above them, paneled wainscot below, and the ceilings have kept their texture and trim rather than being flattened out. Square rooms, windows on every side, light all day. Outside, a red metal roof over cream siding - the kind of roof you stop thinking about - a deck across the back wide enough for a table and chairs, and mature shade trees over a level lawn. Four tenths of an acre on a quiet lane, with real room between you and the neighbors. Here is the part that matters. There is nothing left to do. No projects waiting in the garage, no weekend list, no we-will-get-to-it. Move the furniture in and start living. For what it costs and how much of it is already finished, this is a rare thing to walk into.

A rare secure retreat on 11+ private acres backing the Chattahoochee National Forest -- no rear neighbors, with protected wilderness as your backdrop. The centerpiece is what almost never comes to market: a brand new underground Atlas Survival Shelters Platinum Series Safe Cellar, engineered as a true NBC (nuclear/biological/chemical) shelter with blast-valve air filtration, a sealed interior-latching hatch, well-fed water storage, and a secondary escape hatch. A genuine self-reliance asset! Above ground, the property lives just as well as it protects. The renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath main home (approx. 1,680 sq ft, manufactured) features a 4 Yr old roof, HVAC, and energy-efficient windows, plus a gourmet kitchen with Frigidaire Professional appliances and granite counters, a screened porch, and an expansive pergola-covered deck. A separate 554 sq ft site-built guest cottage -- kitchenette, full bath, loft, and private deck with Hot Tub -- offers flexible space for guests or extended family. The grounds are built for independence and enjoyment alike: a remote-controlled security gate, new fencing, and a primary well with electric pump backed by a hand-draw well that provides water even when the power's out. An open meadow stands ready for gardens or crops, and a tranquil cement pond with a solar-powered pump and aerator adds to the setting, in addition to a fenced garden with raised beds. A second driveway adds access, and a Separate-metered, two-room shed - electricity already run - opens up real possibilities: think tiny home, retreat-shed, studio, or workshop. An additional shed provide extra storage. Furnace Creek is a short, private, walk away, with miles of area hiking trails, and high-speed internet keeps you connected. This is a one-of-a-kind blend of comfort, security, and self-sufficiency -- schedule your private showing today.
