About this home
Welcome to your own private retreat in one of Forsyth County's most sought-after locations! Nestled on a quiet 2.17-acre lot with NO HOA, this custom brick and Hardi-Plank ranch offers nearly 4,900 square feet of beautifully designed living space, combining timeless craftsmanship, modern comfort, and exceptional versatility. Featuring 4 bedrooms, a spacious bonus room, 5 full baths, and a dedicated home office, this home is designed to accommodate today's lifestyle with room for everyone. The main level showcases beautiful hardwood floors, a luxurious primary suite, an inviting open living area, and a well-appointed kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry-perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The fully finished terrace level is ideal for multi-generational living, an in-law suite, or a private teen retreat. Complete with its own exterior entrance, second kitchen, one bedroom, two full baths, and a separate two-car garage with an EV charging hookup, it offers incredible flexibility for extended family, guests, or even a home-based business. Step outside and experience your own backyard oasis. The newly built covered porch is the ultimate entertaining space, featuring a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and a cozy gas log fireplace overlooking the large fenced backyard. The freshly lime-washed brick exterior, automatic landscape lighting, and mature trees create stunning curb appeal while offering a peaceful setting you'll enjoy year-round. Outdoor enthusiasts will love being just minutes from Lake Lanier and Keith Bridge Park & Boat Ramp, providing easy access to boating, fishing, and year-round recreation. Despite its private setting, you're only minutes from outstanding shopping, dining, entertainment, and convenient access to GA 400. Families will appreciate being located in the highly acclaimed Forsyth County School System, one of Georgia's premier public school districts, with this home located in the desirable East Forsyth High School district. Opened in 2021, East Forsyth High offers modern facilities, a strong academic environment, and a growing reputation as one of the area's most desirable school communities. Homes offering this level of quality, space, privacy, and flexibility on acreage-without the restrictions of an HOA-are a rare find. If you've been searching for a home that truly has it all, your search ends here....
