This stunning estate home sits perched upon its gentle acreage down a quiet road in Candler. Relax while breathing in the crisp mountain air. Enjoy views from your pick of covered porches. Mature plantings, specimen trees, seasonal blooms, and multiple fresh water springs will surely delight! Perhaps you will choose to catch dinner in stocked pond? You will love the large detached garage, barn, and multiple storage sheds. Inside find extra-large rooms with expansive windows, hand crafted moldings, and gleaming hardwood floors. The robust wood stove and custom built, energy efficient, Isokern fireplace are sure to keep you cozy and warm when the temperatures drop. Upstairs, there is a 546 Sq foot flex room/studio space with an outside entrance, and the daylight walk-out basement has an expansive workshop and office space. There is even a walk-in vault for valuables, whether those be collectibles or provisions. What a rare offering of a legacy property!
