Perched on a hilltop overlooking Chimney Oaks Golf Course, this Northeast Georgia retreat offers golf course views, long-range mountain views, and complete privacy on 9.56 usable acres, all without HOA restrictions. Three distinct living spaces, including a custom main residence, a finished apartment with kitchenette and full bath above the attached three-car garage, and a fully finished detached guest house with bedroom, full bath, and designer kitchen, provide approximately 4,900 sq ft of combined finished living space. Recent improvements include the fully finished guest house, new windows throughout the main residence, and the newly enclosed and conditioned sunroom, ensuring this estate is move-in ready. The custom-built main residence features a stacked stone entry, hardy plank exterior, and metal roof. Inside, wide-plank hardwoods flow through an open layout connecting the chef's kitchen, dining area, and vaulted great room, which opens to two sunrooms for additional living space. Custom cabinetry, granite counters, large center island with cooktop, and walk-in pantry anchor the kitchen. The owner's suite offers a multi-tiered tray ceiling, walk-in closet, adjoining sitting room or private office, and spa-inspired ensuite bath with walk-in tile shower, dual vanities, and water closet. A second main-level bedroom with full bath, home office, charming mudroom with covered breezeway access, half-bath, and laundry round out the first floor. Upstairs, a private bedroom with full bath and walk-in closet. The detached guest house, with its own septic system and separate electric meter, offers possibilities for multi-generational living, extended guests, or rental income. Mornings on the front porch overlooking the fairways, evenings around the back patio fire pit, and Georgia skies in every direction. Minutes from I-85, Commerce, and Cornelia, with easy access to Athens and the North Georgia mountains.
