Along the water’s edge on Lake Burton, this fee-simple 2.08-acre retreat in exclusive Goat Cliff Estates pairs deeded lake access and a dock house with sweeping, layered mountain vistas and memorable sunrise-to-sunset views. Thoughtfully curated by a well-known designer and built by a master craftsman, the interiors balance comfort and grandeur with salvaged beams from a 114-year-old Tennessee barn, warm wood accents, soaring ceilings (10 to 14+), and large picture windows. The open-concept living and dining areas flow into a well-appointed kitchen featuring inset custom cabinetry, a seven-foot island, and additional custom-built storage. A spacious primary suite feels like a private sanctuary, with a spa-like bath offering heated floors, a large overhead rain shower, and a soaking tub set to sunset views. Outside, linger on the porch or gather around the masonry fire pit overlooking the lake.

Set on 8.9 private acres in Watkinsville, this builder’s personal custom home pairs modern comfort with craft-forward details milled from the land itself.

The kitchen is designed for everyday ease, with an oversized island, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, a gas Frigidaire range, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry. A butler’s pantry adds a sink, prep space, and distinctive hanging storage. In the primary suite, a vaulted cedar ceiling warms a flexible sitting/office/nursery area, alongside a large walk-in closet, soaking tub set by a picture window, and an oversized tile shower. A newly enclosed sunroom invites slow mornings, while a pole barn and 30×50 shop with office/apartment potential extend the possibilities beyond the main house.

On High Street in Fayetteville’s Trilith, this custom four-level Bellamy reimagines the familiar floor plan with upgrades that shape everyday living. An oversized first-floor bedroom extends beyond the standard footprint, offering flexibility as a guest suite, in-law space, or a work-from-home office that feels intentionally designed. A custom-built mudroom brings order the moment you arrive. Upstairs, a chef’s kitchen centers on a 10-foot waterfall-quartz island and a Thermador 48-inch double-oven range, paired with a smart-connected faucet and a custom Italian backsplash selected specifically for the home. One of the largest walk-in pantries in the neighborhood, custom cabinetry, and premium lighting add both function and polish, while full smart-home automation lets you manage lights, garage, and security from anywhere. Above it all, an unobstructed rooftop view creates a memorable finish to the day.
