About this home
THIS WOODED RETREAT HAS A CREEK FEATURE WITH A TRANQUIL DECK TO ENJOY YOUR LITTLE PIECE OF NATURE...
More than a home, this is a private retreat designed for the way people aspire to live—peaceful mornings surrounded by nature, evenings spent entertaining family and friends, and every day feeling like an escape from the ordinary. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on 2.58 wooded acres in Cherokee County, this remarkable estate delivers a rare combination of architectural character, refined craftsmanship, and resort-inspired outdoor living that is seldom found at this price point.
Inside, nearly 4,000 square feet unfolds with soaring ceilings, a dramatic two-story wall of windows, and an abundance of natural light that showcases the surrounding wooded landscape. A striking see-through gas fireplace creates warmth and connection between the living room, dining area, and open kitchen, making the main level equally suited for intimate evenings or effortless entertaining. The thoughtfully designed floor plan also offers the convenience of a private main-level owner's suite, creating comfortable everyday living without compromise.
One of the home's most exceptional features is its professionally designed wine cellar—a true collector's showcase. Equipped with commercial-grade refrigeration and custom racking for approximately 1,800 bottles, this purpose-built space represents a level of craftsmanship and investment rarely available in residential properties. Whether you're an avid collector or simply appreciate extraordinary spaces, it offers an experience that sets this home apart.
The lifestyle continues outdoors, where every space has been created to invite gathering, relaxation, and connection with nature. Multiple entertaining areas include a pergola, fire pit, A creek feature with a tranquil private deck lets you enjoy your little piece of nature deep in your own private wooded sanctuary, professionally landscaped gardens, and winding pathways beneath a mature tree canopy. A greenhouse with electricity and water, tranquil fountains, and full-property irrigation enhance the beautifully maintained grounds, while the fully fenced backyard provides exceptional privacy for both quiet mornings and lively evenings with guests.
The terrace level extends the home's entertaining possibilities with a spacious recreation room, custom bar, full bath, and direct access to the outdoor living spaces, creating a seamless transition between indoor comfort and outdoor enjoyment.
Practical luxury accompanies every detail. Two separate garages offer generous room for multiple vehicles, collector cars, workshop space, and storage. A centrally monitored security system, professional landscaping, and irrigation provide convenience, confidence, and easy maintenance.
551 Gold Rush Court is more than a beautifully appointed residence—it is a finished lifestyle experience where every space has been thoughtfully designed to create lasting memories. For buyers seeking privacy, architectural distinction, exceptional entertaining spaces, and enduring value, this move-in-ready property presents an opportunity that is increasingly difficult to find. Select furnishings are available by separate agreement. Showings are by appointment only....
