Introducing the 2025 Cashiers Designer Showhouse

WELCOME TO CASHIERS

Join Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles and Cashiers Historical Society as we present the 28th-annual Cashiers Designer Showhouse from August 22–30. This year, a stunning modern rustic home nestled in Saratay Falls, a Loudermilk Homes development, embraces the natural beauty of Cashiers.

This 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home seamlessly blends timeless design with modern mountain living. Notable features include a spacious great room with a cozy, natural stone fireplace and 12-foot pocket sliding doors opening to a covered porch, a chef’s kitchen with a pass-through bar to the grilling porch, and a dining room framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to a private patio. The owner’s suite boasts 21-foot ceilings, forest vistas, and a luxurious spa-like bath. Upstairs, the property offers three guest suites and a second living area, perfect for relaxation and entertaining. Set against picturesque surroundings and offering private access to a breathtaking 50-foot waterfall, the 2025 Showhouse is a true sanctuary in the mountains.
