Unique, Historic ( approximately 200 years old ), truly one-of-a kind, 2700' Loft Sanctuary in a converted 1800's historic mill, sited on the Oconee River. Soaring, nearly 30' ceilings, with exposed metal truss, old patina wood ceilings, exposed metal duct-work, metal factory windows, thick brick/stone masonry walls, sublime light fixtures, a stylish and functional kitchen with custom maple cabinetry and stainless appliances, custom artful baths with open showers, custom heart pine vanities/detailing, one bath has custom polished concrete floor with pattern of teak inlay, glass block work, a sliding barn door, a highly customized laundry area with excellent built in cabinetry and elevated front load washer/dryer, a spiral staircase, an artfully constructed loft along 2 walls, with custom metal railing, that overlooks common area below, and provides several distinct living areas. There's a huge, private, amazingly tranquil 2nd story screen porch and balcony that overlooks the river, where one can meditate/relax to the tranquil sounds of the river, watch turtles sunning on rocks, or watch the seasonal changes of the trees along the other side of the river. This space offers a very fluid floor plan, such that any owner can creatively reinvent how the space is utilized to meet their needs. It's highly versatile, with numerous rooms off of the enchanting common living area that can serve a wide array of uses: studio space, offices, bedrooms, meditation, home gym, dark room for photography or home theater. This converted historic Mill is comprised of an eclectic mix of interesting people, and the landscape is lush, with an abundance of communal green space, rich architecture, gardens, walking paths, sitting/reading/meditation spots, and recreation space. This seems to be a good stretch of river for rafting/canoeing/kayaking. Just the tree-lined entry along the river, a stretch of dogwoods, sets the tone that one is entering a special place. Truly magical, and a rare opportunity to experience living alongside the river in a sublime historic structure, full of character, history, and artfulness.
