256 Blood Root Trail, Ellijay
Custom to-be-built mountain home on a 3.26-acre cul-de-sac lot positioned at the crest of a peak on Burnt Mountain, part of the southernmost tip of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This homesite offers some of the most dramatic views in Falling Waters. This home will be built by Precision Custom Home Builders, a true custom home builder offering flexibility to modify the design. The home features a thoughtful single-level layout with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a spacious 3-car garage. Designed for modern luxury mountain living, it includes a vaulted great room with fireplace, formal dining, home office/study, mud room, and a large island kitchen that flows seamlessly to a covered rear porch. The primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and a bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower, while the guest suite and flex spaces provide versatility. This home will be built on a full unfinished basement, ideal for storage or future expansion. The exterior will showcase timeless mountain-style architecture, with a mix of quality materials and options for timber or stone accents to complement the natural surroundings. The homesite itself is extraordinary - at the crest of the mountain peak, with wide west- and south-facing vistas. Once the homesite is cleared, portions of the view will open fully to reveal unobstructed long-range horizons, while other areas frame ever-changing seasonal mountain and valley views. On clear days, the Atlanta skyline can be seen in the distance. The terrain starts gently from the cul-de-sac for an easy driveway approach, transitions into a rolling slope perfect for a walk-out basement, and then drops into a steep slope that frames breathtaking panoramic scenery. Nestled in a deciduous forest with neighbors nearby, this lot offers the perfect balance of privacy and community. Falling Waters is a gated luxury community with wide paved roads, a quaint fishing lake (Lake Montag) with a screened pavilion, fire pit, and swing, a private primitive campground with pavilion, and a scenic walking trail along the spring-fed waters of Clear Creek. Approximately 20-25 minutes to Ellijay or Jasper, 40 minutes to Blue Ridge, and just an hour from the Atlanta perimeter. Nearby are apple orchards, wineries, U-Pick farms, mountain trails, and seasonal destinations like sunflower and pumpkin fields. This is a preconstruction listing; the home has not yet been built. Buyers may tailor the design before construction begins. Renderings are representative only and may not reflect final selections. Staged interior images do not show actual furnishings, decor, or materials. If you love the finishes, ask about available options at your construction appointment. Terrain and satellite imagery are for reference only and not a survey. All plans, locations, and vista pruning require HOA Architectural Committee approval. Per HOA policy all buyers must be accompanied by an agent. Estimated build time is approximately 12 months after contract closing. A rare opportunity for a new construction custom mountain home on a 3.26-acre wooded lot with long-range and seasonal views.
