"Location, Location... Foundation, Foundation!!!" This open, custom designed, owner's bedroom on main house was built on a stately City of Dahlonega property, with mountain views. Less than 2 miles from the Historic Downtown Square. Yet, slightly removed from the vibrant city life. Located in Sky Country, beside Lake Zwerner. Lake Zwerner offers park settings, hiking trail, kayak & boat launches. Less than a mile away & driven past on your way home. Simply lovely. The Sky Country property has all the desired amenities offered in a city. City water, natural gas, trash, and leaf pick-up, maintained streets in a well kept environment. Also, happy, healthy and friendly neighbors! "No required H.O.A." This uniquely designed house has a welcoming "one step up" front entrance. Covered by a large and unobstructed drive-thru carport. Built on an expensive, fully poured, concrete basement foundation. Creating a 1200+ SQ. FT., open to the rear of house, garage. This garage has 2 large garage doors & separate entrance door. Overhead twin steel I beam construction secures the floors above, with a "bomb shelter" below. The garage opens to a 50'x45' secluded parking area. Accessed by a separate driveway & blended into the rear of house landscape. Lots of room for all your toys!!! Now, about this house itself. Built for a retired U.S. Army Colonel returning home to Dahlonega. He graduated North Georgia College & Military School while marrying a local. They returned after years of service to create this treasure. When you enter this currently updated home, you are greeted by a 24' floor to ceiling fireplace. "Flanked" by floor to ceiling windows left to right, opening onto the deck. Look up over your shoulder, there is an open second story balcony area, overlooking the main & dining area. This enhances the upstairs space. Upper level had 2 large bedrooms that open onto a private 3rd story, outdoor, covered patio. There's a shared full bath & a lot of closet space. Oh, haven't mentioned the view!! OK, there is more to tell, yet you should see what hasn't been told for yourself. Like the main floor. Updated with views from every window of this "one of a kind" property. Plenty of possibilities to expand the main floor, at little cost, if ever desired. The seller acquired this one owner property upon the passing of it's creator. Any known issues were addressed by the seller. Seller's age & change of plans make this property available "AS-IS"
