Property Description

Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin Apprentice and UGA professor Harold G. Wescott, this sprawling split level sits in harmony with the natural wooded 2.29 acre property surrounding it. This home was originally commissioned in 1964 by the late Earl and Mary McCutchen—local potters and art glass makers—who appreciated the Prairie style architecture that is so iconic of the period, which heavily influenced the mid-century modern designs. Upon entry you’ll find vaulted ceilings with two-story fieldstone double fireplace made from stones sourced on the property during construction. The entry level fireplace is gas logs while the lower, den-level fireplace is woodburning. Additional features include 3 large bedrooms each with their own bathrooms (3 bathrooms) and a half bath as well as gorgeous updated kitchen with striking, earthy granite and loads of storage. The primary bedroom has nearly 270 degrees of open windows and also offers ensuite bath with a large vanity and six—yes six—closets. The living and dining areas open up onto a large patio overlooking the lovely property. Surrounded by windows, almost every nook of this home feels one with nature. The den and third bedroom open out onto a second patio overlooking the back yard. Also off the den is a very large laundry room with shelving, cabinets and extra stove outlet. Off the two-car carport is a flex space that could be used for additional storage or converted to an office, shop or craft area. And if you need two flex spaces, there is also a free-standing heated and cooled studio offering more than 225 additional square feet. The private cul-de-sac lot has so much to offer. HVAC is 7 years old. Roof is 4 years old with transferrable warranty including studio roof. Hot water heater is 5 years old.
