This brick stunner is not built on the acre-plus landscape but rather into the landscape. In fact, the Tallulah River, which provides a spectacularly scenic introduction to the house during a five-mile approach, is what homeowners experience daily from a spacious, 1,000-square-foot-plus overhanging deck, atop a dramatic white boulder. The 250-foot water frontage property's sensory experience is of water flowing over rocks, the seasonal changes in hardwood trees, and wildlife galore. Surrounded on 3 sides by US Forest Service & only a short distance to 5 incredible waterfalls. But just as remarkable is the home's 2,600-square-foot plus interior. Central in the 3BR/2.5BA, two-story home is the massive and impressive kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances including a 6 burner Wolff cooktop with, 2 Wolff double ovens, 2 Bosch dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator & stunning granite counters. Its a space equipped for a seasoned cook to a master chef. The kitchen's wide open space flows into the equally airy, fireplace-apportioned great room, and light floods the expansive spaces daily from a multitude of windows. The generous master bedroom has a fireplace for cozy winters, yet plenty of glass doors open to the deck during warmer seasons. The master bath marries a modern, glassed-in shower space with a stand-alone, claw-foot porcelain tub. Upstairs there are two spacious bedrooms and a beautiful Jack & Jill design bathroom, ideal for couples and guests. Bonuses upstairs: coffee bar and intimate balcony. A new, 600-square-foot vaulted-ceiling yoga room is flexible for other purposes a a striking home office, a practical bunkroom, a roomy workout area. Both an attached and two car detached garage, and a parking pad, offer space for vehicles and recreational equipment. Make this beauty a private retreat or offer it as a singular vacation and/or corporate rental. Only a 30-minute drive to downtown Clayton with all the farm to table restaurants, galleries & shops, you don't want to miss this one!
