Property Description
Experience the pinnacle of mountain living on this extraordinary 5.75-acre estate situated at a rare 3,300-foot elevation, offering crisp air and cool summers. The grounds are a masterpiece of native landscaping featuring established rhododendrons and azaleas surrounding two private ponds fed by a cascading stream and waterfall. A short walk leads to the trailhead for Rabun Bald (Georgia's second-highest peak), offering access to thousands of acres of National Forest and the historic Bartram Trail. Enjoy stunning western sunsets over the valley and direct views of Rabun Bald from your own private "walkabout" yard. Whether it's s'mores by the firepit, fishing in your own ponds, or hitting the links at the nearby Sky Valley Golf Course, this is luxury living that feels like year-round summer camp. A paved driveway leads to an impressive drive-through porte-cochere and grand mahogany and wrought iron entrance. Inside, the home reveals the unmatched craftsmanship of Gillespie's Cabinet Shop throughout. The chef's kitchen features a massive "stand-up" height island with a built-in appliance lift and professional-grade appliances, including a 48" six-burner gas cooktop, KitchenAid double convection ovens, a commercial-size refrigerator/freezer, and a built-in ice machine. Designed for longevity and accessibility with a wheelchair ramp, the main floor hosts a spacious Master Suite with fireplace, a Guest Suite, home office, sewing room, and a formal dining room with a built-in buffet. Upstairs features three large suites-two with private bonus rooms and lofts. The daylight basement is an entertainer's dream, featuring a guest suite, bunk room, and dedicated spaces for a home theater, gym, and billiards, all opening to a lower porch with a hot tub overlooking the waterfall. The basement level also includes a massive 5-car garage, workshop, and storage, while a separate driveway serves a dedicated covered RV parking spot. NEW ROOF & NEW HEAT PUMP (DEC 2025). Situated adjacent to Sky Valley, (Rabun County Taxes only!) with mountain views and cool temperatures and just minutes from snow tubing, the alpine coaster, zip-lining (Highlands Outpost and Highlands Aerial Park) premier dining of Highlands, Clayton, Dillard, Sky Valley, High Holly Vineyard, wonderful Julep Farms and #18 ranked school in the nation for 2022, Rabun Gap Nacoochee School. 15 minutes to Highlands and 20 minutes to Clayton. You'll never want to leave!
