This one of a kind rustic cabin offers 4 BR's and 3 1/2 BATHS with highly sought after wide plank wood floors, exposed wood beam vaulted ceilings throughout the main level and seasonal mountain views. Moreover, this charming cottage home enjoys an incredibly unique architectural style and is like no other home in all of Big Canoe. This property was built by Dr. Robert Platt (noted ecologist and biologist from Emory University) between 1976 and 1981 as his personal retirement home. The Platt Botanical Garden area outside the Terraces at Big Canoe was named for Dr. Platt. The "country kitchen" chimney was built from the chimney remains on this site from the same time period as the Firefox cabin. The mantel is a hand-hewn beam from a Waleska house built in 1827. Dr. Platt's custom home plans were inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. The eves are large enough to block most summer sun while allowing winter sun to enter. The approximately 125 foot cascading waterfall from the pond flowing under the house provides retreat from city life. The level private drive is over 500 foot long and the house is not visible from the street. Big Canoe's facilities provide options for an active lifestyle. This very private 5 acre estate lot backs up to over 40 acres of green space that provides direct access to nature trails and Jeep Trail connecting to miles of hiking trails spanning across Big Canoe. The trails also provide walking access (about 1 1/2 miles) to the beach and fitness center located in Wolfscratch Village. This very special one of a kind home is your chance to have your very own little oasis, a place of sanctuary nestled into acres upon acres of beautiful mature hardwoods throughout the property. Come, see and enjoy the tranquil sound of a natural waterfall that flows under the home and across the acreage property year round. An absolute must see!
