Property Description

This exquisite home offers over 6,800 square feet of beautifully finished living space and stands out as one of the largest and most impressive residences in the highly sought-after Cheswyck community. Designed with both everyday comfort and grand entertaining in mind, this home is the definition of luxury living. Step inside to a dramatic two-story foyer that opens to an expansive main level featuring soaring 10-foot or higher ceilings, a formal dining room, private living room/home office/den, and a junior master suite complete with its own seating area and full bath—perfect for guests or multigenerational living. The heart of the home is the massive gourmet kitchen, boasting a large center island, granite countertops, gas cooktop with pot filler, built-in wall oven and microwave, walk-in pantry, and a convenient mudroom entry area from the three-car garage. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious family room with coffered ceilings and keeping room—both with cozy fireplaces—creating an open-concept design perfect for entertaining. Upstairs, retreat to the oversized master suite with a tranquil sitting area, plus one additional ensuite bedroom, and two additional bedrooms with a large jack-n-jill bath. In addition to all of this, upstairs is a versatile loft/playroom/game room area. The fully finished terrace level is a showstopper, featuring soaring 15' ceilings, a walk-out basement, a full bar with ice maker and dual-zone wine/beverage cooler, an expansive recreation space, open flex area perfect for your gym equipment, a den with a wood burning fireplace, additional bedroom, and full bath and loads of storage space in two unfinished areas. Added features that bring this home to a level above include wired in-wall Bose speakers (2 speakers plus center speaker) in the keeping room, bonus room, and basement living area, with additional front speaker jacks in the basement. Insulated interior walls provide added sound privacy between the formal living room and guest suite, and between the bonus room and adjacent bedrooms. Enjoy three fireplaces throughout the home—a direct-vent fireplace in the keeping room, gas log or wood-burning in the family room, and gas or wood-burning in the basement den (with gas starter). Practical touches abound, including an oversized side basement door, natural gas line on the deck for grilling, extra hose bibs and electrical outlets, and rear floodlights accessible from upstairs bedroom windows for easy maintenance—plus an additional floodlight over the driveway and basketball area. Two new 3-ton AC units were installed on July 3, 2024, and come with a transferable warranty valid through July 3, 2034. Outdoors you will enjoy outdoor living at its finest on the expansive deck that spans the length of the home and overlooks a private, wooded backyard oasis with beautiful stone steps down to the lower patio under the deck. All this, located just minutes from The Collection at Forsyth, award-winning shopping, dining, and entertainment, and in the top-rated South Forsyth schools. Neighborhood amenities include a community pool, tennis courts, clubhouse, and a private lake with fishing.
