Property Description

Set within a woodland wonderland on over half an acre, this expansive ranch home offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience-just minutes from Downtown Alpharetta, Avalon, and GA 400. Surrounded by lush gardens and mature hardwoods, the property feels like a secluded retreat while remaining close to everything. The home is designed for both comfort and entertaining, featuring an open kitchen with a large island, ideal for gatherings, and a vaulted sunroom that seamlessly expands the living space while bringing the outdoors in. Two exterior decks overlook the peaceful wooded backyard, while a screened porch offers the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. The oversized primary suite provides a true sanctuary, complete with a spa-like bath and soaking tub. Recent updates include fresh paint and new flooring in the bedrooms, adding a crisp, move-in-ready feel. Downstairs, the basement includes a finished bonus room along with abundant space for a home gym, workshop, storage, or additional flex areas-offering endless possibilities to suit your lifestyle. With a meandering stream and charming bridge leading to the back of the property, this home delivers a sense of tranquility that is increasingly hard to find. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully set, this property offers luxury, flexibility, and a retreat-like atmosphere in one of North Fulton's most sought-after locations.
