Inside, an open kitchen, warm wood details and playful color create a bright, welcoming space made for gathering, relaxing and staying awhile. The space The Glasshouse Garden Retreat is a bright, spacious two bedroom home surrounded by nearly half an acre of gardens, mature trees and woodland in Whispering Pines on Cobb Mountain. Inside, the home has warm wood floors, farmhouse style plank walls and ceilings, French doors, stained glass details, lots of natural light, houseplants and playful touches of color. It’s cozy, a little quirky and full of character. The heart of the home is the large open concept kitchen and dining area, made for gathering. Cook while everyone hangs out around the table, linger over breakfast, or make dinner together without the person cooking being tucked away from everyone else. The primary bedroom features an organic Saatva mattress, while the second bedroom has a comfortable memory foam mattress. THE GARDEN The garden really is the heart of this place. Step outside and you’ll find mature trees, flowers, ferns, garden beds, winding paths and peaceful little places to sit and enjoy the mountain air. The birdsong here can be so clear and constant that it almost sounds like a recording. Follow the garden steps up the hillside and you’ll find the property’s namesake, a vintage wood and glass greenhouse tucked among the greenery. Filled with natural light and character, it’s a wonderful place to curl up with a book, relax on a rainy afternoon or simply listen to the rain against the glass. CLOSE TO THE LITTLE THINGS For somewhere that feels so tucked away, you’re surprisingly close to everything you need. The heart of Cobb is only about three minutes away, where you’ll find a local grocery store, pizzeria, and a charming little café and bookstore. Grab coffee and browse the books in the morning, pick up groceries for dinner, or bring a pizza back to enjoy at the house.
