Welcome to lake living at its finest in Cherokee Cove at Lake Burton. This beautifully appointed 5BR/4.5BA, 3,249 SF retreat spans three finished levels and offers the space and flow today's lake buyers are looking for - main-level primary suite, chef's kitchen, two separate living areas, wet bar, screened porches, and a stone fireplace anchoring it all. Step outside to your deeded covered boat slip with lift, plus community boathouse, sandy beach, firepit, and kayak access - everything you need for full-time lake enjoyment is already in place. HOA covers grounds, roads, seawall and water, so ownership here is as easy as it is beautiful. Truly turn-key - just bring your toothbrush. This home is also a proven short-term rental with a perfect 10/10 VRBO rating and sleeps up to 18, making it an exceptional income-producing asset as well as a family retreat.   Ideally located just minutes to Clayton and Clarkesville, and 20 minutes to the Waterfall Club.
