Over 100 years ago this property was used by local timber men who floated cypress logs down the Satilla River to be loaded on the railroad cars. There were log cabins with hand-made clay brick chimneys. The remains of these bricks, as well as broken dishes and utility bottles have been collected and saved. Several old horseshoes, cut nails and other hardware items have also been found. The only things left of the large lake that was in the back are cypress stumps and a creek bed which serves as a property line. The owners dreamed of a country home that was modern on the inside, but looked as if it was 100 years old. Starting with five truck loads of cypress logs and a load of North Georgia rock, they began designing their home. The logs were rough cut and air dried while they dropped into a… Show more grove of decades of old oaks to pour their foundation. This home is truly amazing and The actual construction site was chosen for conservation and ecology. No trees had to be removed. The front entrance to the home has Georgia stone and used brick walkway. Entering the covered porch you some into the foyer which is walled in cypress tongue & groove herringbone. To your right you step up into the great room, fourteen foot ceiling with stoned fireplace and hearth from floor to ceiling.

The kitchen has cypress cabinets, center island and cypress trim bull nose edging. There is cypress wainscot & trim throughout the house on the first floor. 3 bedrooms with ceiling fans, walls are insulated to prevent noise from rooms. Master bath has two person jetted tub as well as a full bath suite and porcelain sink. This home has so much history and is truly built to perfection.
