15 Huntcliff Ridge

Enjoy the ease of peaceful estate living on more than 11 rolling acres, where this ski-lodge inspired home sits like a private retreat overlooking a walk-out pool and lovely river view. Tucked away, yet well connected, this property lies just minutes from renowned vineyards and charming mountain towns, like Dahlonega and Helen, with quick access to GA-400 and only an hour away from the shops and restaurants of Milton and Alpharetta. Atlanta’s international airport is an easy hour and a half away, as you return home along smooth roads and a paved curved driveway approaching this secluded estate. As you enter through the wood paneled foyer into the family room, the home immediately reveals its most captivating features - a two-story view of the wooded landscape, pool and river, warmed by a wood burning stove and walk out to an expansive wrap deck. To the left of the foyer sits a spacious main-level bedroom, perfect for guests, an office, or convenient single-level living. To the right is the chef’s kitchen, featuring a Wolf range, upscale appliances, and striking granite countertops - also with walk out to the deck, where you may host large and small gatherings. As you walk through the kitchen, you are led to the grand gathering and dining space, anchored by a soaring stone masonry fireplace that rises dramatically toward the vaulted ceiling. Another two-story wall of windows brings the outdoors inside, offering a stunning backdrop for meals and celebrations. Completing the main level is a sunroom or artist’s studio, where arched floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with light. An adjoining breezy screened porch completes the main floor. Upstairs is the primary suite with private bath and large his and her closet. The lower terrace level offers a cozy gathering area with masonry fireplace, flanked by two generous bedrooms and a bath, and well-appointed laundry room with sink and abundant cabinetry for storage. Just steps away, the detached two-car garage includes a bonus space affectionately known as the “Gingerbread House”—a charming over-garage air-conditioned apartment, suitable for guests or a retreat for the creative writer. Outside, stone walls and meandering pathways wind through curated native trees and flowering shrubs - a landscape intentionally designed to bloom with color and texture throughout the seasons. Gazing from the deck affords a beautiful view of a bend in the Tesnatee Creek where you may still pan for alluvial gold. The cleared, level lower yard between the pool and creek is ideal for badminton games or soccer practice. The 44 foot pool with spa is perfect for relaxing or swimming laps. Additional amenities include custom-covered RV parking with electrical service, and a second covered parking area with power. Irrigation and solar panels complete the exterior features. This property offers a rare opportunity for mornings to begin with coffee, birdsong, and the rush of a waterfall accompanying your remote workday or creative endeavors in the sunroom/studio, where landscape, woodlands, springs and creek align to create an environment of luxury and charm.
