Discover a rare opportunity to own an exceptional multi-parcel estate that combines privacy, functionality, and a natural park-like setting - all within minutes of town conveniences. The sale includes the primary residence at 1237 Blackjack Court along with the adjoining acreage at 1480 Blackjack Drive, creating a uniquely expansive property rarely available this close to town. The inclusion of both parcels - offering additional land, privacy, and long-term value - is a key factor in the home's pricing. Set on beautiful acreage surrounded by mature trees and abundant wildlife, this property delivers the tranquility of mountain living while remaining centrally located. Enjoy daily visits from deer, foxes, owls, and hundreds of birds that frequent the property for food and water. A private "track" trail winds throughout the acreage, perfect for hiking, biking, or off-road adventures. From the property's elevated position, take in stunning 360-degree panoramic views featuring Stone Mountain, Red Top Mountain, and the North Georgia landscape - with even occasional sightings of Lockheed aircraft crossing the horizon. During winter months, when the leaves fall, the views expand dramatically, creating an even more breathtaking panorama. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive and thoughtfully designed, featuring a tranquil waterfall, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, and a fire pit supported by an abundant on-property supply of firewood. This setting is ideal for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining, comfortably accommodating events of 100+ guests surrounded by nature. Inside, the home offers remarkable versatility and room to grow. The expansive basement - originally designed by a car enthusiast - provides exceptional space for collectors of all kinds, whether automobiles, motorcycles, bicycles, or specialized hobbies. It includes a full bath and a finished flex space ideal for a home gym, studio, media room, or guest retreat, along with extensive storage and workshop areas. A convenient dumbwaiter services both the main level and basement, with a built-in shaft that can be converted to a full elevator and extended to reach the unfinished attic, offering outstanding potential for enhanced accessibility and future expansion. The unfinished attic, approximately 1,700 square feet, is already equipped with electricity and HVAC access, providing significant upside for future development - whether as a private office, fitness space, guest suite, or additional living area. Additional premium features include an infrared sauna for wellness and relaxation and a lightning deterrent systeminstalled on the roof for added safety and peace of mind. This is more than a home - it's a compound-style property offering acreage, views, privacy, infrastructure, and expansion potential that simply cannot be replicated at this location. Whether you're an outdoor enthusiast, wellness-focused buyer, or someone seeking space, security, and long-term value, this property offers a lifestyle few homes can match. Why drive to Blue Ridge when you can live that experience every day - right here?
