Description
A rare find, this historic home named Woodleigh on 21 acres has some of the most fabulous views in North Georgia. Built in the mid 1800's as a summer home for a wealthy Charleston family, this property has only had three owners. This is a prime investment as the home was built in Charleston style and in need of some restoration, this could be a stunning showplace and an unbelievable investment. Huge rooms have 13' ceilings and a piazza that wraps around three sides of the home. This 3 bedroom, 1 bath home is a true testament to the craftsmanship of the 19th Century with original hardwood floors, period appropriate millwork and classic architectural details throughout. While the home is in its original state, it offers the perfect canvas for an investor or a preservationist's dream. Oversized windows with functional shutters allows for much interior light. The large kitchen with built in corner cupboard, though functional, retains its historic design and presents an opportunity to modernize while preserving its vintage appeal. The 21 acres sits atop a knoll, offers a mix of wooded and cleared areas. On a clear day you can see Mt. Yonah and others, over the valley. This remarkable property offers fabulous vineyard potential and other endless possibilities. Easy access to charming downtown Clarkesville, shops, restaurants and outdoor recreation at nearby Lake Burton and Tallulah Falls makes this a perfect mountain retreat with this property offering both seclusion and convenience. 350 Caribou Lane is a prime opportunity for an investor, renovator, or history enthusiast looking to bring new life to an authentic piece of Georgia's past. You won't want to pass this opportunity up.
