This extraordinary 18.57 acre French country estate offers panoramic vistas of rolling pastures and north Georgia mountains and includes horse farm facilities. This distinctive country house built of field stone rises on a hill. The natural slate roof with its aged patina, half-round copper gutters, and the hand-built rock wall nestles the home securely into its surrounds. The front entrance with its stone alcove opens to a foyer with a custom-made staircase complete with an 1904 colonial revival oak newel post. The centrally located cathedral ceiling living room is over-looked by a library of bookcases. The formal dining room which easily seats 12+ is framed by antique oak corbels, warmed by a masonry fireplace, and illuminated by a vintage 8-arm, amber alabaster chandelier with matching sconces. A pocket door leads into a huge gourmet kitchen that boasts a separate Sub-Zero freezer and refrigerator with a 9-foot center island incorporating a KitchenAid five burner stove top, a bar sink and wine cooler. Home cooked meals are prepared using double sinks, built-in double ovens, and plenty of storage in three-tiered custom oak cabinets. The baking center has a lowered counter to roll out sugar cookies for childrens parties. Adjacent is a nook for a childs homework with mom/dad. The casual family eating area, outlined by brick faced walls and full-story windows, seats eight. The adjoining family room has a masonry fireplace and, like all of the four fireplaces, has a unique full-surround oak mantle of yesteryear. The porcelain brick hallway accesses a walk-in pantry with floor to ceiling shelving, a laundry room with custom cabinets and a half bath, a doorway to the front shade garden and an entrance to the oversized three-car garage protected with new commercial grade Nitro Roll G-flooring. The main level master suite is truly unique for having two completely separate ensuite bathrooms each with a large walk-in closet. With a two person jacuzzi, fireplace, vaulted ceiling and antique angel-face corbels it is a haven from a busy family life. The master offers direct access to the rear patios and back yard. Next door the private office or convenient nursery, has a double door to a private brick patio garden for morning coffee. There are oak hardwood floors throughout the first floor, 10 ceilings first floor and 9 on second. Smart thermostats control both levels. The second story has five suites with generously sized rooms, large walk-in closets, and ensuite bathrooms. Three bedrooms have built-in window beds for sleepovers or just fun reading nooks. Additionally, there is a current nursery or future playroom. On this level, a second full laundry with custom cabinets simplifies life. A sitting room outlined in windows has panoramic views of Wauka Mountain which would make a terrific art studio or office. One of the five upstairs suites is an 800 sq ft live-in nanny/mother-in-law suite featuring full living room, kitchenette area, bedroom lined by picturesque windows, walk in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a handicap assessable tub-shower. The exterior features tiered patios landscaped with a gentle waterfall, fountain and fishponds. Ancillary garden areas tiered for blueberries or grapes with perfect climate exposure. Each summer you can enjoy the well-stablished productive blueberry bushes. Stone walkways lead to a large beautifully beamed pavilion and 20 x 40 built in pool for fabulous fun and WiFi connected family movie night. The huge flat backyard has a swing set play area and adorable, quaint playhouse. A pasture tree hides a treehouse great for campouts. This property, once having been a horse farm, has multiple fenced pastures, a four-stall barn with upper hayloft and a sand-based riding rink that all could be brought back to its former glory. There is a lovely stream near the back of the property. This French country estate
