Ideally
situated on 95+ acres in an area of beautiful rolling
pastures and woods this magnificent country retreat offers a tranquil
country lifestyle and plenty of riding room for the serious horse person.
Picture this,
the "Main" house was completed in 1988 using post and beam
construction built over a full basement with a 12" thick poured
concrete wall foundation. This unique three story executive home with
all of the solid white oak main timbers assembled on site uses wooden
dowels and no nails, has five bedrooms, and three and one half baths.
The great room is a huge open area with high ceilings and has an
alcove with an Italian porcelain wood stove. The kitchen proudly
displays custom pecan wood cabinets trimmed in oak and Corian counter tops.
Built-ins
include Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, ice maker, electric range,
trash compactor, dishwasher, instant hot water tap, disposal,
microwave, commercial copper vent hood and more. An elegant office/study
was built with the owner's needs in mind. The entry foyer is floored
in slate with a magnificent tin plated cooper chandelier. A huge 12'
x 41' screened porch overlooks the majestic North Georgia mountains.
We have just "walked through" the new portion of the
"Main" house.
Now for the
old/new portion. The present owner's ancestors built a log cabin
about 1820 to raise their family. Through the years this structure
was cared for and eventually disassembled and stored. The present
owners of Greensprings Farm bought the cabin, reassembled it,
carefully restored it and incorporated it into the current
"Main" house as the living room. As in many log cabins of
this circa this too has a beautiful loft that the owners now use as
an artist studio. The entire home is totally comfort controlled by
three "zoned" electric heat pumps.
The
"Caretakers" home is located on the road frontage
and was renovated in 1986. It consists of three bedrooms, one bath,
entry foyer, living room, large country kitchen, spacious dining
area, all appliances including washer and dryer.
The "Grounds"...
95 acres including improved fescue pastures as well as 42 acres of
mature loblolly pines which were planted in 10' spaced rows in 1987.
In the "Main" house offering the following is included: a
1.25 acre lake stocked with large mouth bass, brim, channel catfish
and sterile grass carp. At the lake's edge is a large tiled floor
Pavilion covered with a Galvalum roof and serviced with water,
electricity and telephone, a 16' x 22' fully automated greenhouse
with propane heater, cooler and watering system, a large "slat
house" with 50% shade which is ideally suited for Bonsai
culture, a huge warehouse/garage building with three overhead doors
and 14' high poured cement walls, an outdoor sauna, broadcast tower
and antenna, satellite receiving system and much, much more.
The
property will be offered in small individual tracts, in
combinations and as a whole. If you are interested in the
"Main" house and amenities listed above, you may purchase
this on an acreage tract smaller than the 95 acres. If you are
interested in smaller tracts anywhere from 5 acres up to and
