Contemporary architectural estate overlooking Blue Ridge Lake. Commanding one of the most extraordinary settings in North Georgia, this contemporary estate is perched high above Blue Ridge Lake, surrounded by the protected beauty of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Designed in harmony with its setting, the residence blends striking architecture with the natural landscape, creating a home as timeless as it is unforgettable. A dramatic two-story glass atrium introduces panoramic views of Blue Ridge Lake and the surrounding Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee mountain ranges. Natural light fills the interiors, while every principal living space is oriented to celebrate the extraordinary surroundings. Designed by TSW Architects for sophisticated entertaining and relaxed mountain living, the residence offers four bedrooms, four full baths and one-half bath, including two exceptional owner's suites. The primary owner's suite is a private sanctuary with a screened porch and wood-burning fireplace. A sitting area overlooks the lake and distant mountains, while the spa-inspired bath is enveloped in floor-to-ceiling glass framing the Chattahoochee National Forest and a magnificent natural rock outcropping. A freestanding soaking tub and oversized walk-in shower create a private spa immersed in nature. The secondary owner's suite features twenty-foot ceilings, walls of glass, a private screened porch, and spectacular lake and long-range mountain views. Two guest suites offer privacy, with a shared screened porch and built-in bunk alcove for children or guests. The living room is the architectural heart of the residence, where twenty-foot ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and expansive glass walls frame uninterrupted views of Blue Ridge Lake. The adjoining gourmet kitchen features premium Bosch appliances, including a gas cooktop and double wall ovens, generous preparation space, custom cabinetry, and access to indoor and outdoor dining areas. The terrace level offers a second living area with another wood-burning fireplace, lounge seating, and a billiards area with wet bar-perfect after a day on the lake or exploring the mountains. Outdoor living is equally compelling. Two expansive viewing decks and three screened porches offer multiple destinations for sunrises & sunsets over the lake, afternoons surrounded by forest, or evenings around the fire beneath the stars, while preserving privacy. Bordering the Chattahoochee National Forest, the property enjoys privacy, protected natural surroundings, and breathtaking lake views, just minutes from downtown Blue Ridge's boutiques, restaurants, galleries, and the marina. As an added bonus, the property is adjacent to the Green Mountain Trail, connecting to the North Georgia trail network. Rare among luxury mountain residences, the home has been maintained as a hypoallergenic environment, especially appealing to those with sensitivities to fragrances and environmental irritants. More than a luxury mountain home, this contemporary architectural retreat brings exceptional design, enduring craftsmanship, and one of North Georgia's most spectacular settings together in a residence of uncommon beauty.
