About This Home

As of July 2026

Luxury and thoughtful design come together in this completely reimagined 1,842 sq ft residence located in the desirable Skyline Hills area of Forsyth. Unlike anything else on the market, the distinctive octagonal layout creates a natural flow, anchored by a striking wood-burning fireplace that serves as the centerpiece of the home. The split-bedroom design offers both openness and privacy, making the layout as functional as it is eye-catching.
The kitchen is designed to impress, featuring premium appliances including a six-burner gas cooktop with pot filler, wall oven, built-in microwave, and beverage cooler. Custom cabinetry maximizes storage with floor-to-ceiling pantry space, pull-out shelving, and soft-close features throughout. Quartz countertops add a sleek, durable touch, while the butcher block island and matching accents provide warmth and character.
Privately positioned on one side of the home, the primary suite offers a spacious walk-in closet with built-in organization and a beautifully appointed bathroom complete with dual vessel sinks, a jetted soaking tub, and a walk-in glass shower with multiple spray features for a spa-like experience.
On the opposite wing, you'll find a well-designed guest area including a second bedroom with an entire wall of closet space and direct access to a private deck. A full bath with double vanity, along with a conveniently located laundry space featuring storage and a folding area, adds to the home's everyday practicality.
Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows invite in natural light and frame sweeping southern views, enhanced by custom thermal shades. Step outside to a spacious two-level deck--ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful setting.
Perched on approximately half an acre, this property offers a perfect balance of modern upgrades and comfortable living, all within one of Forsyth's most established neighborhoods.
