Just a quarter mile outside of the city limits (off of Old State Route 5), this home on nearly 5 acres is simply something you don't see every day. This distinctive 5-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers an uncommon combination of acreage, architecture, privacy, and convenience. The home is defined by dramatic lines and an abundance of glass, including a soaring two-story wall of windows that brings the surrounding landscape indoors. Vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, a stone fireplace, generous room sizes, and numerous windows give the interior character that sets it apart from more traditional homes. The kitchen offers open convenience to the dining area and outdoor living spaces. The primary suite is especially spacious, with vaulted wood ceilings, walls of windows, a large bath, and substantial closet space. With five bedrooms and multiple living areas, the floor plan provides flexibility for guests, home offices, or hobbies. The terrace level is finished and full with additional outdoor screened porch and decking. Outside is where this property becomes particularly special. Nearly five acres create a park-like setting filled with mature trees, established landscaping, walking areas, and multiple decks and covered porches woven into the natural surroundings. There is room to enjoy the property rather than simply look at it. For the buyer who needs space beyond the home, the oversized garage/workshop is a tremendous asset, offering extensive work and storage areas plus a large unfinished upper level. A carport provides additional covered parking. City water, natural gas, and fiber optic internet service available. All of this is tucked into a private setting while remaining only minutes from Downtown Ellijay. A hard-to-find property offering substantial acreage, architectural character, exceptional auxiliary space, and location. This one doesn't fit neatly into a category and that's exactly what makes it special.
