Property Description

Tucked into Forrest Glen Estates, this custom ranch on a basement offers a rare sense of privacy while remaining close to everything. Backing up to mature hardwoods, the covered rear porch has become the true heart of the home-a peaceful place for morning coffee, evening conversations, or simply watching the seasons change through the trees. Inside, the spacious kitchen features a large granite island, leathered granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and generous workspace for cooking and gathering. Four-inch red oak hardwood floors, board-and-batten details, and shiplap accents add character throughout, while custom closets provide both beauty and exceptional functionality. Every finish feels thoughtfully chosen and built to last. The private owner's suite is set apart from the secondary bedrooms and includes two custom walk-in closets, a spa-style bath, and direct access to the covered porch. Upstairs, an approximately 650-square-foot bonus suite with a full bath and walk-in closet offers flexible space for guests, a home office, gym, media room, or additional bedroom. The daylight basement is ready to finish and offers approximately 2,689 square feet with 10-foot ceilings, a full wall of windows, rough-in plumbing for a bath, a separate exterior entrance, a covered patio, and a new HVAC system. Located just minutes from charming Downtown Flowery Branch, Lake Lanier, the Braselton LifePath, Northeast Georgia Medical Center, golf, shopping, and dining, this one-of-a-kind setting is increasingly difficult to find.
