About This Home

As of January 2023

Welcome home to beautiful Etowah Trails and this beautiful MASTER ON THE MAIN home on 2+ acres. Relax on your oversized front porch as you overlook the beautiful North Georgia Mountains. It's hard to find this large of a lot and all of this privacy in the award winning school district of Forsyth County! Step in to your entry foyer with all real hardwoods throughout the main floor. To your right you will find two large bedrooms that share a jack and jill bath with an oversized soaking tub. Both bedrooms also have large closets. The kitchen is the center of the home and a great size with tons of cabinets and a large pantry. Breakfast bar as well as a breakfast room make up the rest of the kitchen. The breakfast room opens up to a wonderful screened in porch that also opens up to an unenclosed deck. The family room has a stacked stone, gas log fireplace and a gorgeous wooden vaulted ceiling. There is also a powder bath off the hallway by the family room. The hallway also leads to the oversized master that has the stunning mountain views and has a door leading out to your front porch. The master bath has a large soaking tub and separate shower and a large walk in closet with a secondary closet inside that could be easily opened up to add a laundry shoot to the laundry room. The open staircase behind the family room leads to the full daylight basement that has two large bedrooms and a full bath. The one bedroom also has access to the lower porch area and the other bedroom has a large, oversized walk in closet. The laundry room is truly large and has a utility sink and closet that could be opened up to accommodate a laundry shoot. There is also a large media room and more storage in the hall. The garage is 2 full bays with a third that can be used for storage, jet skis, or any other toys. This is a prestigious neighborhood and a wonderful opportunity to get in to a hidden Forsyth County Gem neighborhood. You are close to adorable downtown Ball Ground, yet only 20 minutes to Lake Lanier as well. This neighborhood is also districted to top Forsyth County Schools.
