Perched above the Heart of Downtown Calhoun and set on approximately two private acres, this exceptional and extraordinary four-sided brick residence offers a rare combination of privacy, elevation, and scenic views of the town and distant mountains. Approached by a gently curving driveway, the home sits prominently overlooking mature landscaping, lush hydrangeas, and one of the most beautiful lawns in the area. Despite its central location, the setting feels remarkably quiet and secluded. The architect of this home is award winning Keith Summerour. Keith is the architect of many Sea Island and Blackberry Farms homes. He has been featured in Architectural Digest and Garden and Gun magazine. Thoughtfully designed with meticulous attention to detail, the home showcases high-end finishes throughout. From the exotic wood on the side porch to limestone steps and bluestone on the front porch, quality craftsmanship is evident at every turn. Wood columns, shutters, and doors complement the timeless architecture, while triple-hung floor-to-ceiling windows along the front of the home fill the interiors with natural light. The ceilings on the main level range from approximately 11 to 14 feet and are enhanced by extensive molding and trim work. Flooring consists of rich hardwoods and natural stone, reinforcing the home’s classic, upscale aesthetic. The foyer features an antique newel post, and designer lighting throughout. The main level offers beautifully proportioned living spaces including a welcoming family room, keeping room, and well-appointed kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The primary suite and an additional bedroom or office are conveniently located on the main level. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms are connected by a bright sitting area with expansive windows and beautiful natural light. Each bedroom in the home features an en-suite bath, along with large closets complete with custom wooden organization systems and drawers. The finished terrace level provides exceptional flexibility with a full kitchen, living area, game space, craft room, full bath, and an additional room that can serve as a fifth bedroom. Built into the side of a rock hillside, this level offers added safety and can function as a storm shelter. The home also provides abundant storage throughout. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a low-maintenance heated gunite pool, irrigation system, and mature landscaping designed for both beauty and ease of care. The terrace and covered porch create multiple areas for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, extensive storage, en-suite bedrooms throughout, and a thoughtfully designed layout combining elegance with functionality. With its elevated setting, exceptional finishes, and private yet convenient location, this remarkable property offers a rare opportunity in the heart of Calhoun.
