TUSCANY IN DAHLONEGA!  On the Dahlonega Plateau Viticultural Area in this beautifully rendered Mediterranean architecture home of stone, mortar, terracotta, and concrete; heavy-walled with tall windows and arched entry doorway, curtained with ivy and infused with charm and character - a World Traveler’s Retreat set amongst a little village community with rows of neatly pruned grapevines silhouetted against open skies and rolling grassy hills.

A well-dressed interior greets you as you step inside, classy and restrained of hand-sculptured oak flooring and overhead beams, cast concrete, rustic steel, earth toned tile, and radiused-corner walling.  There are five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths total for the property and every bedroom has its own bath.  Tall doors and taller ceilings combined with stretched and broad windowing makes for a light and open feeling.  Everything here lends a feeling of solidity, quality, and taste. 

The family room warms with its stone, overhead beams and mortar fireplace; a keeping room gives a cozy corner for reading or conversation and for overlooking the outdoors.

Antiqued cabinetry in the kitchen area integrates nicely with variegated and stained cast-concrete countering, a long stretch of cabinetry, and center island.  An elegant and substantial gas range by the Italian manufacturer Fratelli Onofri makes for a unique and attractive center point.  A pass-through butler’s pantry offers direct kitchen access to the spacious dining room. 

There’s a half-bath for guests on this main level and the bedroom here has its own elegant bath and thick tiled shower.

The covered back decking area with its stained concrete flooring and solid steel railings is as solid and substantive as it is attractive and appealing - a wonderful place to relax and enjoy on a soft summer's evening. 

 Back inside and up the wide-planked oak stairs on the second level is the laundry room and three bedrooms, each with a wide-angled view of the countryside.  The master suite offers a Tuscany version of luxury living and bath - hand sculpted oak flooring at your feet and wood beams above, and a large walk in closet.  In the bath a claw-footed tub resides by a window view, adjacent is the water closet. Dual cast-concrete variegated and stained vanities give plenty of powder space, large squares of earth toned tile cover the floor and line the walk-in shower. 

Beneath you is a full unfinished daylight terrace level and covered patio looking out onto a pretty area with a little trickling branch.

The adjacent carriage house has its own upper live-in suite with full bath and a large walk-in shower.  A twin garage offers space for vehicles and storage. 

The outdoor courtyard is another place you'll want to spend time. Walled and protected but with a view to the rolling hills, with a chipped-stone ground base, an outdoor fireplace, and plenty of room for family and friends.

The community, Montaluce, offers a top-tier winery, restaurant and swimming pool. The location is just a short drive to town - Dahlonega - and an easy commute to the Metro Atlanta area.

For beauty of scenery and architectural appeal - for uniqueness and desirability - this home offers something special in the North Georgia Mountains. $650,000.
