There are properties that impress you. And then there are properties that make you exhale. Set behind a gated, tree-lined drive on eight private acres in Oconee County - with an Athens address - this is the kind of estate that almost doesn't exist anymore. No HOA. No neighbors in your sightline. No compromise. The 2022 Georgian estate spans nearly 9,000 square feet across three finished levels, designed for the way people actually live - and entertain. The main level opens to a chef's kitchen with quartzite counters, custom cabinetry, a wine tower, pecky cypress beams, and a hidden walk-in pantry that will stop every guest in their tracks. A screened porch extends the living space outdoors, overlooking a resort pool and spa framed by mature trees and total privacy. The primary suite and a full guest suite are on the main level. Upstairs, a media room and three additional bedrooms. The terrace level offers a complete living area, bedroom, bath, and direct access to the pool - ideal for guests, in-laws, or a long weekend that turns into a week. And then there's the indoor basketball court - because why not. Three-car garage. Oconee County taxes. Athens address. Eight acres with no one telling you what to do with them. This is not a house you settle for. It's one you wait for.
