Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history, this extraordinary Bob Timberlake-designed estate was the celebrated designer’s first home in Georgia. Privately positioned on 4.08 wooded acres in Big Canoe, the approximately 7,100-square-foot residence is a masterful expression of Timberlake’s signature style—rich woods, massive beams, soaring ceilings and impressive stone fireplaces, all thoughtfully integrated with the surrounding landscape. A circular drive winds through the trees and introduces a home that feels both substantial and remarkably inviting. Inside, the dramatic great room immediately commands attention with its soaring timber-framed ceiling, expansive gathering spaces and monumental stone fireplace. The open kitchen and keeping room form the warm heart of the home, while a butler’s pantry and separate china room make entertaining on any scale effortless. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat with a vaulted wood ceiling, fireplace and separate “his and her” baths. Generously sized guest accommodations provide exceptional privacy, while the loft, office and multiple flexible living areas allow the home to adapt beautifully for family, guests, hobbies or working from home. The living experience extends far beyond the interior. An expansive EZ-Breeze porch with its own fireplace creates an inviting year-round gathering place, while broad decks overlook the wooded setting. Below, a series of stone terraces, garden paths and intimate seating areas transforms the grounds into a private mountain sanctuary—equally suited to quiet mornings, elegant dinners or unforgettable evenings beneath the trees. A four-car garage offers exceptional space for vehicles and storage, and the heated and cooled room beneath it provides a rare bonus area with possibilities ranging from a workshop or studio to a secure wine collection or additional storage. With approximately 7,100 square feet, multiple fireplaces, exceptional guest space and more than four acres of privacy, this is far more than a home. It is a landmark Big Canoe estate—architecturally distinctive, beautifully preserved and impossible to replicate. The listing agent is available to assist with showings when a buyer’s agent is unavailable and will fully respect all existing buyer-agent relationships.
