This much-loved mountain getaway has so much to offer. It is on a private lot at the end of a cul-de-sac. The home has commanding views of the N. GA mountains & Amicalola Falls. When you approach the house look to your left. Here you notice a charming Monet style bridge which leads to the fabulous screen porch. The flat driveway leads you to the “stepless” entry & 2-car garage. Patinaed pine floors run throughout the foyer, great room, dining area, & kitchen. Montana lodgepole beams were installed. The brackets holding the beams are reclaimed from the Hershey chocolate factory! Great detail begins in the foyer. For example, notice the vanity in the powder room. The vanity is a chest that was brought by boat by the owners’ grandmother who moved from Sweden to the USA. As you enter the kitchen from the foyer through the pocket door notice the finer details like the "touch" faucet & you will love the spice pull out drawer. Beadboard was added to the back of the bookcases in the two-story great rm. From the main level family rm, you see the metal roof which was added. A sunroom is off the great rm/dining rm. A “magical” screen porch w/retracting screens was added by the owners. The owners' bath has heated floors! A laundry & mud room were added when the kitchen was expanded. The laundry room has a sink & a DOG WASH. There is a park-like fenced area which your pet may access from the laundry rm. Several decks were added. The decks have Trex flooring. The additions & upgrades were done by the renowned Wayne Bruce. The terrace level has the 4th bedroom. This bedroom has a fireplace, ensuite bath, and a glass room that would make a fantastic office. This home does have a lightning rod system. A one-of-a-kind mountain getaway you will never want to leave!
