80.71 Acres in Clayton, GA - $7,500,000

The current owner of the property is an artist who envisioned bringing to life a living piece of art, and in pursuing this inspiration, he has created a unique mountain retreat. Golden maple trees line the driveway to the Old-World style luxury home on top of an east-facing knoll with a stunning view of the Blue Ridge Divide. Every aspect of the farm has been meticulously and artistically designed with sophistication and Southern Mountain living prevailing throughout.

Persimmon Valley Farm includes a 6,200 square foot main house, a private apartment/mother-in-law suite above the two-car garage, and two iconic one-bedroom guest log cabins. The equestrian barn houses three indoor/outdoor stalls, a tack room, equipment area, and hay storage loft. Outside the equestrian barn is a modest round pen adjacent to one of the fenced pastures. A second larger barn nicknamed the Yankee Barn may be used to store equipment or for hosting large gatherings. Two fenced-in pastures are located on the property in addition to a tractor barn, two ponds, two streams, a vineyard/apple orchard, run-in horse shelter, lookout tower, and a small potting barn next to a former garden field.

Persimmon Valley Farm is only a short 40-minute drive to renowned Highlands, North Carolina, and an hour and forty-five minutes to Atlanta. Heavens Landing Airpark, a private airpark, is only ten minutes from the farm and boasts a 5,069-foot paved concrete runway with pilot-controlled lighting and a GPS approach. The runway is designed to accommodate most private planes and has refueling capabilities.
