About This Home
Some properties are defined by what has been built upon them. Others are defined by the land itself. Spanning 47.69 unrestricted acres with sweeping views of Whiteside Mountain, this private mountain estate offers a rare opportunity to own one of the Plateau's scarce combinations of usable acreage, exceptional privacy, and long-term potential. For generations, this property has served as a cherished gathering place where lasting memories are created, and the landscape is enjoyed with care. Today, it stands ready for its next chapter. A winding drive leads through open pasture and hardwood forest to two residences positioned to capture the mountain views and peaceful surroundings. The main home features three bedrooms, three-and-one-half baths, a bonus room, gas-log fireplace, and an expansive deck overlooking the property and Whiteside Mountain beyond. A separate guest house offers two bedrooms, two-and-one-half baths, a bonus room, full kitchen, and its own gas-log fireplace, creating comfortable accommodations for guests and extended stays. A detached two-car garage and private well with substantial capacity provide the infrastructure to enjoy the property immediately. The acreage is what truly distinguishes this offering. Gentle, rolling terrain, established trails, open meadows, and multiple potential homesites create endless possibilities for the future. Whether the vision is a thoughtfully updated mountain retreat, an equestrian property, a private compound, or a signature estate residence overlooking the pasture and mountain views, the foundation is already in place. While many large-acre properties require years of planning before they can be fully enjoyed, this one offers the opportunity to settle in from day one while thoughtfully considering what comes next. Just minutes from Mountaintop, GlenCove, Old Edwards Club, and the heart of Cashiers, the setting feels worlds away while remaining close to the area's most sought-after amenities. Timeless, enduring, and remarkably versatile, this is the kind of property that grows more meaningful with time. A place to gather, explore, and create a lasting legacy on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.
