Property Description

What a wonderful opportunity to own this treasured landmark! Affectionately known as "The Castle on the Hill" and featured in Lake Living magazine, this extraordinary estate of "handcrafted architecture - every stone in the home was hand-placed, one-by-one - and antique trim" (with the majority over 148 years old) is surrounded by 7 acres and features an in-ground pool, 4 beds, 4 baths, 2 half baths, and a barn. A gated drive and charming stone wellhouse, hand-dug in the 1940's, (not in use), welcomes you home to panoramic views, abundant turkey, deer, and other wildlife, and Currahee Mountain in the distance. The covered front porch draws you in through double doors to the family room with wood floors, hand tooled, decorative trim throughout the main floor, a cozy, gas fireplace, and a perfectly sized study or office space with an octagonal inlaid wood floor. The entire home features wood floors of oak, white oak, walnut, and maple, along with surround sound. Continuing into the dining room, kitchen, and breakfast area, you'll enjoy the mountain views and ease of entertaining with the adjacent deck. The kitchen features Corian countertops, an electric cooktop with griddle/grill combo, a large pantry, lots of storage and a half bath. As you continue around from the kitchen, a mudroom or second office space sits off the garage, complete with a finished, "safe room"/escape hatch directly below. For added peace of mind, the property features a security system of 12 interior and exterior cameras. Head downstairs to the finished, terrace level and your personal gym with a dry heat sauna. Featuring its own front door and double French doors, this space has incredible potential for generational living with a few modifications. From your patio, you'll enjoy the views of the woods, in-ground, fiberglass, salt water pool, and quaint barn. Rounding out this space is a full bath, linen closet, laundry room with laundry chute from the 2nd floor, and storage/mechanical room. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private retreat with a fireplace and ensuite. Two additional, spacious bedrooms - 1 with a laundry chute in the closet (and another chute on the hall) - with both enjoying mountain views, share a hall, full bath. As you leave the bedrooms, walk around to the double French doors into another generous bathroom with built in storage cabinets, a huge shower with a spa seat, separate tub, double sink vanity, and large windows showcasing the peaceful views. Before you leave this level of the home, don't miss the gorgeous over 100 year old pressed tin ceiling from the building that houses Threads Sports, a beloved and thriving Toccoa business. One more flight of stairs leads to the top level, featuring a secondary, primary bedroom with a fireplace, a huge closet, a half bath, and space for a custom morning bar. This level also offers a cozy sitting area or office, with another stunning octagonal inlaid wood floor, and breathtaking views, perfect for quiet mornings or unwinding at the end of the day. Located just 10 minutes from Historic downtown Toccoa, 2 miles from South Carolina, and 30 miles from Clemson University, this home offers easy access to local shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, and convenience for commuters and students. Lake Hartwell is nearby and you're just minutes to Stephens County Recreation Area and boat ramp. With room to breathe, relax by the pool, ride ATV's, explore the woods, create a beautiful garden, or a gentleman's mini farm, you'll enjoy coming home to the peace of this special place. Home to be sold furnished with a few exceptions, along with most items in the barn. Don't miss your opportunity to own this extraordinary estate. Schedule your private tour today.
