The light-filled main level features wide-plank hardwood floors, a stunning stone fireplace, shiplap accents, elegant mouldings, designer lighting, and a formal dining room with built-ins and tray ceiling. The chef's kitchen is designed for entertaining with a butcher block island, solid-surface countertops, walk-in pantry, and stainless steel appliances. The spacious primary suite includes a tray ceiling, dual vanities, an oversized tiled shower, and a spa-inspired soaking tub. The newly finished terrace level adds a large game and media room with wet bar and under-counter refrigerator, a private guest suite with en-suite bath, generous storage, and access to a walk-out patio and newly rebuilt deck overlooking the stunning landscape. The Orchard is a gated private golf community with 24-hour security, a championship golf course, newly renovated clubhouse, swimming pool, and brand-new tennis and pickleball facilities. Conveniently located near Clarkesville, Tallulah Falls, and Clayton, and just 90 miles from Atlanta, this home offers the perfect blend of mountain beauty, privacy, and country club living.
