About This Home

7.59 Acre Chattahoochee Riverfront Estate with Fully Renovated 5BD, 3.5BA, 4500sqft Luxury Craftsman Home.

The grounds have undergone an even more impressive transformation with new cantilevered river deck, (2) new sets of stairs and landings down to the river, extensive grading, drainage system, and retaining wall to create front and back lawns with zoysia sod and landscaping. The massive landscaping and hardscaping project featured over 2000 new shrubs and trees, approval from county and state authorities to open the views to the river, new sealed pebbled stone drive with electronic gate, 18 zone sprinkler system, and fencing to keep deer out. Main level includes inviting foyer, formal dining, great room with 20 ft ceiling and automatic blinds, study/office, an entertainers' kitchen with breakfast nook and bar seating, laundry/mudroom, half bath, and owners' suite.

You and your guests are sure to enjoy the views of the magnificent shoals and music of the river, plus you'll have excellent trout and bass fishing, paddle sports, tubing, and even swimming right outside your back door! The 7.59 acre estate is platted as three separate lots and offers the opportunity to build 2 additional homes or additional structures or hold the lots as investments. Potential building sites have excellent views of Mt. Yonah and the river. The Chattahoochee Glenn Community is a gated community of estate sized lots and quality homes.
