5 Inviting Tennessee and Georgia Homes from Marina to Midtown

Steps from the marina in Hixson, this beautifully updated residence sits on a peaceful cul-de-sac and leans into modern living with a layout designed for ease and flexibility. Two primary suite options create welcome versatility—ideal for shifting needs, hosting overnight guests, or simply carving out extra privacy. Flexible bonus spaces add room to work, recharge, or pursue hobbies without sacrificing the home’s comfortable flow. Indoors and out, inviting entertaining areas support everything from quiet mornings to relaxed evenings with friends, balancing connection with everyday convenience. Thoughtful updates and a comfort-forward approach keep the experience feeling current yet livable, with spaces that adapt as life changes. Here, the rhythm of home is shaped by calm surroundings and the simple pleasure of being near the water.

Set on nearly two private wooded acres in the North Georgia mountains, this Blue Ridge cabin is designed for both togetherness and quiet escape—without the constraints of an HOA. Inside, four bedrooms and two baths are complemented by multiple living areas, creating a layout that easily flexes for weekends with friends or everyday living. A large game and entertainment room adds a natural hub for movie nights and rainy-day fun, while inviting decks extend the living space outdoors. Gather around the fire pit as the evening settles in, or spread out across the property and enjoy the sense of space and privacy. Practicality is built in, too, with a rare oversized covered RV structure sized for an RV, boat, extra vehicles, and mountain gear, plus abundant parking. Minutes from Downtown Blue Ridge and Lake Blue Ridge, it suits full-time living, a getaway, or an income-producing property.

Set on 2.92 wooded acres in Rising Fawn, this distinctive property unfolds as four separate, fully furnished living spaces designed for flexibility and income-producing potential. At its center, a 20-foot custom geometric dome sits on an elevated portion of the land, framed by trees and scenic local views. Wood decking links the dome to a dedicated bathhouse and dressing area, creating a functional outdoor living zone that feels both intentional and retreat-like. Just behind, a 20×30 community-style building adds everyday ease with a full kitchen, dining area, living room, full bathroom, office, and two loft sleeping areas. A charming “sleeping” cabin nearby rounds out the layout, well-suited to short-term rental use, multigenerational living, or a private getaway where days naturally move between shared gathering spaces and quiet corners outdoors.

The kitchen is designed for everyday ease, with an island, breakfast bar, vent hood, and a large picture window that keeps the water in view. Hardwood floors run throughout the main living and traffic areas for a clean, cohesive feel. In the spacious primary suite, a large walk-in closet connects conveniently to the laundry room, and the bath features a custom tile shower plus a freestanding tub. Outside, an enormous covered back porch invites slow mornings and lingering sunsets over the pond.
