2323 Shady Lane
Lakemont, GA 30552

Authentic hand-hewn chestnut log cabin on 7.84 lush acres overlooking Lake Rabun with spectacular layered Blue Ridge Mountain and sunset views. According to its detailed history, the original log cabin was built between 1820-1840 in Franklin, West Virginia. The home was purchased in 2000 and reassembled on a permanent foundation by a local log cabin expert at 2323 Shady Ln in 2001. From the well-maintained exterior to the perfectly curated interior, this property is as charming as it is fascinating! The well-appointed furnishings were carefully selected from antique stores throughout the south and intentionally placed in the nooks and crannies to make each space exceptional. Two stacked stone wood-burning fireplaces anchor both the main living space and the upstairs primary bedroom; and, a well-planned chef’s kitchenette accommodates the best of cooks. The owners also spared no expense to preserve the authenticity of this log cabin: chinking, pressure washing, staining, and painting are among the projects completed over the past year. Moreover, the addition of 365 Porch Living windows on both porches enables one to enjoy the extraordinary sunsets over Lake Rabun all year around—which is what makes this area of Lakemont extremely sought-after. Finally, the peace and tranquility of the 7.84 acres is a developer’s dream: the building possibilities on so much land in such a desirable area are endless!
