Property Description
If you've ever cruised Lake Hiwassee by boat, you've likely admired this iconic chalet overlooking its pristine waters. Now, for the first time, this remarkable property is available for purchase. Privately situated within the exclusive Bear Paw Resort and spanning three lots, this FULLY FURNISHED 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath LAKEVIEW residence is a striking architectural retreat designed to capture panoramic, unobstructed southwestern views of Lake Hiwassee. The backdrop of protected U.S. Forest Service land ensures these vistas will remain preserved for years to come. Inside, the home features a dramatic Great Room with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, hardwood floors, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Expansive chalet windows fill the space with natural light while framing the surrounding landscape. Glass doors open to a spacious porch, ideal for enjoying the tranquil mountain setting. The kitchen blends style and functionality with granite countertops, a large island, and ample cabinetry. The main-level Master Suite offers a private retreat with a well-appointed ensuite, including dual vanities, a garden tub, and a walk-in shower. Upstairs, a loft leads to an additional ensuite bedroom. The lower level provides a recreation room, third bedroom, full bathroom, and access to an oversized 2.5-car garage. Additional features include a whole-home Generac generator and a three-zone HVAC system for enhanced comfort and reliability. Residents of Bear Paw Resort enjoy a wide range of amenities, including a pool, tennis and basketball courts, pickleball, marina access, a community pavilion, and miles of paved roads suitable for walking, biking, and golf cart use--all within a secure, gated community. This property offers a rare combination of location, design, and enduring views--an exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive lakeview home.
