About this home
Privacy, breathtaking views, and room to enjoy it all-this 6.5-acre Clarkesville property captures everything there is to love about North Georgia living. A long paved driveway and coded gated entrance welcome you home to a peaceful setting with year-round mountain views, usable acreage, and a backyard that borders the 10th hole of Apple Mountain Golf Club. With no HOA or restrictions, there is room here to truly make the property your own.
Designed for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying the outdoors, the expansive covered veranda is a standout feature of the home. Spend evenings in the sunken hot tub, watch the game from the outdoor TV area, add a pool or ping pong table, cook and entertain from the fully equipped outdoor kitchen, or gather around the fire pit as the sun goes down. Whether hosting a crowd or enjoying a quiet evening at home, this outdoor space was made to be enjoyed year-round.
Inside, vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open floor plan create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Large windows showcase views of the surrounding property and golf course, while the spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas flow together beautifully for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers generous cabinetry and workspace along with a hidden walk-in pantry for additional storage.
Four bedrooms and three full bathrooms are conveniently located on the main level, including the spacious owner's suite. Upstairs, a private bonus room with its own full bathroom provides incredible flexibility as a fifth bedroom, guest suite, home office, or space for multi-generational living. Outside, the partially wooded acreage offers a wonderful combination of privacy and level, usable land.
A sizable barn, fenced pasture, and an additional barn in the lower pasture make the property especially appealing for horses, livestock, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the freedom that comes with having your own acreage. Despite its private setting, you're only minutes from Highway 365 and downtown Clarkesville, providing convenient access to shopping, dining, schools, and everything North Georgia has to offer. From mornings overlooking the mountains and golf course to evenings spent around the fire, this is more than a home-it's 6.5 acres designed for living well.

Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
5 closed sales within about 3 miles in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Median of these 5 sales: $470,000 ($163/sq ft). Stronger local evidence. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Stronger local evidence — 5 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $899,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 23% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
- Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 5 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
- Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- 2 active listings competing
- ≈12.0 months of supply
- 2 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $899,000 ($293/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Momentum Property Score
12/100 is limited across the objective indicators below. It reflects only those measures — not the home’s quality, condition, or desirability.
A 0-100 score built from objective property and market data: flood risk, insurance, pricing, supply, affordability, and recent sales. Higher means more measures line up in a buyer’s favor. It reflects only the factors below.
Coverage: 3 of 8 indicators had valid data for this home; indicators without data are left out, not scored as zero. Momentum Scores are objective, rules-based indicators computed from listing facts, public records, and recent comparable sales. They do not measure property condition, quality, or investment suitability, and they are not appraisals, valuations, investment advice, or judgments about a neighborhood or who should live there. Verify independently.
