At the end of a long private driveway, hidden behind nearly nine acres of trees, there is a house. Private. Unpredictable. Wildly spectacular. But you have to earn the reveal. Down the gravel drive. Around the corner. Through the woods. Until suddenly, there she is. Every angle. Every window. Every line, intentional. Because this wasn’t simply designed by an architect. It was the architect’s own home. A copper fountain rises from the perennial garden. Blond brick and sage green board-and-batten stretch toward the sky. You look up and realize you’ve never experienced a home quite like this. Fifteen-foot ceilings. Warm wood. Stacked stone. Walls of glass. The architect believed you could design a house, build it, live in it for years, and still discover views you never knew were there. Brick pillars move effortlessly from inside to out, blurring the line between architecture and forest. Sidelights echo the front door, repeating its rhythm vertically toward the ceiling. It feels organic. Sculptural. Almost Spiritual. Frank Lloyd Wright influence meets the vertical drama of an Italian tower house. A home designed to blend melodically into the woods. In Winter the forest pulls back. Golden beech leaves glow outside the windows. Then spring arrives. And the house disappears again, into a sea of chartreuse. No neighbors. Just trees. Birds. And quiet. Morning coffee on the deck. Wine in the evenings, while lightning bugs dance to the cicadas' song. The rock formation below makes you feel like you are experiencing the wilderness of some sacred land tucked into the North GA mountains. The land is pristine. Untouched. Holy. Back inside, 8-foot doors make everything feel taller. While the wood-wrapped Andersen windows pull the forest close. A fireplace of hand-chipped Tennessee fieldstone anchors the living room, solid and sculptural. Freshly refinished white oak floors smooth under your feet. A white oak staircase climbs upwards, past a lofted office and at the very top of the stairs you discover a rooftop deck. The tower was designed on an 11 degree rotated grid, creating unexpected angles and infinite sightlines. It's modern without being cold. Architecturally poetic without feeling sterile. Beautiful enough to admire and comfortable enough to pull your feet up on the couch. Behind the pretty face, she’s built like a fortress. Standing-seam metal roof. HardiePlank siding over a rainscreen. R-30 roof insulation. Two new Carrier Infinity HVAC systems. The 8.97 acres could even be subdivided, with two acres already fenced for the dogs. But then again, you may decide to keep every inch for yourself. Nearly nine acres of untouched forest. A winding creek. Ancient rock formations. Space to disappear from the world. It feels alive. Mysterious. And just a little bit magical. It might just be the best kept secret you ever discovered. And once you find it... you won't want anyone else to know where it is.
