The Iconic "Skiers Perch" is a captivating, rustic yet luxurious, Lakeside custom home located in the exclusive gated community of Whitestone Lake Estates in North Georgia, that offers a daily retreat into breathtaking natural beauty. Picture yourself starting each morning with a steaming cup of coffee on the many covered decks, overlooking two man-made 3-Event Tournament Lakes. These serene lakes are framed by majestic mountain vistas. This wonderful home was re-constructed by Carter Gentry a renowned local builder using local timber harvested and milled just a few miles up the road. Nestled high above the lake's southern cove, strategically perched within shouting distance from the awaiting skier in the water below. Spanning nearly 5,000 square feet of enhanced living space, this immaculate remolded residence boasts two thoughtfully designed spacious master bedrooms. The commercial kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring a standing level Chef's cutting board island, with an attached 3-position breakfast nook, a Stainless-steel drawer microwave, a culinary eight-burner gas stove, two under-sink stainless-steel dishwashers, and a restaurant-style two compartment deep stainless-steel sink. The main level includes one of the two master bedrooms with an en-suite bathroom with a rain-fall shower head, a spacious walk-in closet, and a covered private deck. A formal office/study/media room, a well-proportioned and grandiose vaulted ceiling great room, gas linear fireplace, half bath with hands-free commercial/residential dryer, full laundry features, and open ship-inspired steel balustraded deck. All are accessible from the front of the home's stunning entryway and foyer through its massive iron French doors.
The garden level provides additional family room/den living space with the second of the home's massive master primary bedroom, sitting area, walk-in closet, and en-suite bath. An additional third bedroom with a full bath, and ample storage, and second washer & drier hookups.
Whitestone Lake Estates is a haven for Slalom, Trick, and Jump skiing enthusiasts, offering two professionally engineered lakes, and two world-class Competition Ski boats. Whitestone has, and continues to host several USA Water ski sanctioned events each year. The 1.7 acre lot is nestled within a wooded hillside, providing phenomenal views of both lakes, surrounding mountains, and the community's abundant wildlife, from its 60-foot covered decks, making this home a perfect blend of luxury, functionality, and natural beauty. A private community pavilion with grilling equipment and seating for over 25 friends, family, and guests makes this an ideal onsite location for those special occasions.
