Description
Discover peaceful country living in the heart of Milton with this newer construction craftsman farmhouse, built in 2017, offering just under 3,000 square feet of living space on 8.11 private acres. This charming 3-bedroom, 3-bath home with a wraparound porch is ideally located near shopping, restaurants, and grocery stores, with quick access to Atlanta Hwy 9, GA 400, and top-rated Cambridge High School district.
Whether you're seeking a private retreat, mini farm, or equestrian property, this property has it all. The land includes a 24' x 24' three-stall barn with run-out stalls, chicken coop, three fenced grass pastures, a wooded pasture with a large run-in shed, and a previously footed 100' x 50' grass riding arena.
As you wind down the paved driveway, you're welcomed by 4-board black wood fencing that frames the picturesque, shady grass pastures--setting the tone as you approach the gated entrance to the home and barn. Tucked away at the rear of the property surrounded by it's pastures and private duck pond, the setting is quiet and serene.
As you enter the thoughtfully designed home, you are greeted by a spacious open floor plan enhanced by soaring two-story vaulted ceilings and an airy loft. This layout offers plenty of space for comfortable living, with the added bonus of easy future expansion in the terrace-level garage.
Thoughtfully upgraded throughout, the home has 5/8" hardwood and tile flooring, a custom wrought iron staircase with matching balusters, and a 8' double iron front door makes a grand entrance. The open-concept kitchen and living area is the true heart of the home, centered around a 15.5' granite island that's perfect for entertaining or daily life. The kitchen offers ample cabinet space, double ovens, and a large walk-in pantry. Off the main living area, the screened porch includes a stunning stone-clad wood-burning fireplace and porcelain tile floors. A 14' bifold Anderson door opens completely for seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Upstairs, a loft overlooking the kitchen makes an ideal spot as a reading nook, movie nights or a home office. The primary suite features a spa-like bathroom with Carrera marble counters, granite sinks and tile flooring, a euro-style double shower, and a crystal chandelier with a hidden ceiling fan.
This home was designed with energy efficiency in mind, built with 2x6 exterior walls and high-grade insulation. Anderson tinted windows, ceiling fans in every room, a central vacuum system, two zoned heat pump HVAC units, and new water heater ensure comfort year-round. Well water has been tested and is excellent, though city water is also available.
The exterior is low-maintenance Hardiplank and stone with a durable standing seam metal roof. Outdoor living spaces include a 16' x 16' Trex deck, a 36' flagstone patio with walkways, and an additional 12' x 12' Trex deck overlooking your private pond.
The property is fenced with 4-board fencing along the road and gated entrance, plus newer perimeter fencing added in 2018. The CUVA agricultural exemption is in place through 2027, offering significant property tax savings.
Conveniently located just 1 mile from Atlanta Highway 9, 5 minutes to Bloom Restaurant, 8 minutes to Publix, and within 10-15 minutes of 7 Acre BarnGrill, Scottsdale Farms, Crabapple, Milton, and Halcyon.
