Property Description

Set along more than 300 feet of Chattahoochee River frontage, this 7.59-acre estate pairs a thoughtfully updated, approximately 4,500-square-foot Craftsman home with an extraordinary setting. The four-bedroom, three and a half-bath home also offers a bonus room that can be used as a fifth bedroom. This property perfectly blends rustic character with contemporary finishes while the river's dramatic shoals provide a view and soundtrack all their own. The updates reach well beyond the finishes. Inside, improvements include hardwood floors, shiplap, reclaimed doors, designer fixtures, new appliances, and a fresh color palette. Structural beams replaced columns to open the dining room. Exterior and mechanical improvements include new windows, a front entry porch and doors, roof and gutters, a whole-house generator, two HVAC units, and a finished garage and shop with wooden garage doors. The grounds have been transformed with the same attention to detail, and the property has a brand-new septic system. A cantilevered deck overlooks the river, and two sets of stairs and landings lead down to the water. Extensive grading, drainage work, and a retaining wall created level front and back lawns with zoysia sod. More than 2,000 trees and shrubs were added, along with an 18-zone sprinkler system, deer fencing, and a sealed pebbled-stone drive with an electronic gate. County and state approvals allowed the river views to be opened up. On the main level, a welcoming foyer leads to a formal dining room, a great room with 20-foot ceilings and automatic blinds, a study, and an entertainer's kitchen with a breakfast nook and bar seating. A laundry and mudroom, half bath, and owner's suite complete the floor. The suite features a tray ceiling, custom walk-in closet, soaking tub, and oversized tiled shower. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a shared full bath, and a reading nook. The terrace level offers a family and media room, a spacious flex room, a full bath with a frameless-glass tiled shower, a home gym, storage, and a workshop. Walk out to the veranda and level lawn from this floor. Here, the river is part of everyday life. Enjoy the sight and sound of the shoals, fish for trout or bass, or spend the day paddling, tubing, and swimming just beyond the backyard. Platted as three separate lots, the property also offers an excellent opportunity to build two additional residences or other structures. A crafty buyer could also hold the additional lots as investments. The potential building sites offer great views of both Mount Yonah and the river. Chattahoochee Glenn is a gated community of generously sized lots and high end homes. It is conveniently located near Sautee, Helen, and Clarkesville with easy access to all of Northeast Ga.
