Dreams Come to Life in This Waterfall Home
JOHN SHIVERS
The address, 633 Waterfall Drive in Clayton, is the first clue that this 5,846± square foot home holds exceptional possibilities.
Re-enforcing this first impression are the birds-eye views of championship golf greens below, and the picturesque waters of Lake Burton in the near distance. This European-inspired two-level home, sheathed with wood shakes, mountain stone, and craftsmanship, topped with a 50-year Da Vinci® slate composite roof, awaits the discerning buyer.
Outside and inside, this five bedroom, six bath mountain estate is distinguished by a level of design and finish that sets it above and apart from other homes. No cookie-cutter architectural philosophy here. Look no farther than century old ceiling beams, custom blacksmith-forged chandeliers, refined luxury finishes throughout, and discover how spectacular this home actually is. Factor in the owner’s ability to join Waterfall at Lake Burton to enjoy the club’s many amenities, and this exceptional property quickly becomes a “must-have” acquisition.
Completed in 2023, and situated on .87± acres, the property offers great potential for immediate occupancy, and for down the road as well. While the lower level has been completed, it’s waiting for the new owner to add the custom touches – their unique touch- es – that make a house a true home. Three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two flex rooms, plus two storage rooms, and a second laundry room, and covered porch on this level drastically expand the livability footprint.
Meanwhile, there’s a level of luxury living just one floor up that is literally the stuff dreams are made of.
From the moment you enter the front foyer clad in whitewashed antique barn siding, and featuring a custom-crafted naturally finished pine ceiling, you sense the distinction. The great room, dining, and kitchen on the back half of the house continue the whitewashed paneling. A multitude of Marvin® windows, and pine floors; a perfect marriage of rustic elegance and top-of-the-line sophistication make this space special. A massive stone fireplace anchors the great room.
A covered open air living room runs much of the back side of the home, providing a front row seat to the picturesque Northeast Georgia mountains and their four-seasonal color exhibitions. Automatic wind shades that can withstand wind speeds up to 110 miles per hour, allow for increased use of this outdoor space. A masonry fireplace and a built-in Wolf® grill increase the entertaining potential.
The kitchen is equipped with solid wood cabinetry and Alexandria® quartzite countertops, top-of-the-line finishes and equipment, such as Wolf® and sub-zero appliances. Waterstone Wheel® Pulldown faucet and farmhouse sink set this home apart. A massive stone surround over the range echoes the fireplace in the great room, and anchors the kitchen space. A large walk-in pantry further increases the convenience factor.
Two primary bedroom suites anchor each end of the main level. Both feature en suite baths with double sinks, marble showers, water closets, and spacious walk-in closets. One of these suites includes the home’s third masonry fireplace. The office, immediately off the foyer, is clad in 12-inch heart pine paneling, and is trimmed with moldings milled on-site. A laundry room, control center for the expansive security and wi-fi systems, extensive pre-wiring for TVs, a 30kw Cummins® whole house generator, and dual HVAC systems add still more value to this exceptional Waterfall residence.
