The view is the first thing you notice-and the reason you will not want to leave. Set in The Oasis at Ritchie Creek, this furnished 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat captures long-range mountain views from both levels. A short drive from town, this home brings together everything buyers hope to find in a mountain home: easy access, ample parking, generous indoor and outdoor living, room for everyone and a view that feels far removed from it all. Inside, modern touches blend beautifully with warm rustic design through soaring wood ceilings, exposed beams, natural finishes and walls of glass that keep the mountains in sight. The open great room flows onto the covered porch, making the view part of everyday living. A beautiful stone fireplace anchors the room, while the adjoining kitchen offers custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large island and comfortable seating for gathering. Three stone fireplaces throughout the home create inviting places to slow down and enjoy every season. The finished terrace level adds tremendous flexibility with a second living and entertainment area, wet bar, additional sleeping space and direct access to the lower deck. Four bedrooms, three full baths and spacious gathering areas on both levels make the layout equally appealing for full-time living, weekend escapes or hosting a houseful without feeling crowded. Multiple covered porches provide plenty of room for morning coffee, outdoor dining and evenings spent watching the mountains change with the light. Offered furnished, the home is ready to enjoy without the time and expense of starting from scratch. Spend the day boating or fishing on Lake Blue Ridge, exploring the Toccoa River and nearby hiking trails, visiting Mercier Orchards, or enjoying downtown Blue Ridge's restaurants, boutiques, galleries and Scenic Railway. Then return to peaceful surroundings, memorable sunsets and the kind of layered mountain view that makes every trip here feel too short.
