Property Description

From the moment you step inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and a dramatic 40-foot wall of windows set the tone - framing breathtaking views that make every day feel like a retreat. The great room is anchored by a majestic stone fireplace with a raised hearth and exposed wood beams, creating a space that is equally suited for quiet evenings and lively entertaining. The chef's kitchen features handcrafted solid wood maple cabinetry, stone counters, and a fully equipped butler's area with its own sink, second dishwasher, and walk-in pantry - designed to handle everything from casual mornings to large gatherings without missing a beat. A chandelier elevates the eat-in kitchen, which flows directly onto a screened porch perfect for al fresco dining with a view. The main-level primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering his-and-her walk-in closets - one currently used as a dedicated home office - a spa-style bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and a private screened porch where you can start and end every day surrounded by the sounds of nature. The terrace level expands the home's versatility with a spacious family room anchored by a gas fireplace, two additional bedrooms, cedar-lined walk-in closet, a Jack-and-Jill bath, and its own private deck. Seasonal views of Lake Petit, the dam, and surrounding mountain ridgelines provide a constantly changing backdrop throughout the year. With periodic vista pruning, the mountain views remain prominent year-round. The oversized two-car garage features a dedicated mini-split HVAC system and epoxy-coated floors - a rare and practical touch. The current owner has made extensive improvements during his five-year ownership, including a full whole-house HVAC replacement, solid wood interior doors throughout, a rebuilt chimney and flue, new vanities, new washer and dryer, dual dishwashers, upgraded light fixtures including kitchen and stairwell chandeliers, fresh interior paint, and crown molding on the terrace level. Storage abounds throughout every level of this home, and all furnishings are available for purchase. Nestled in Big Canoe's coveted Lakeside neighborhood behind a staffed security gate, residents enjoy access to championship golf, hiking trails, a marina, pickleball, pool, fitness center, and a newly renovated clubhouse - all wrapped in the natural beauty of the North Georgia mountains.
