Welcome to your own private retreat. The impressive Colonial all brick home sits atop sweeping stone landscaping overlooking this 9.76 acre hidden estate. Refined living transitions into the surrounding classic Georgia pine and hardwood bottom as the woodlands follow peaceful Little Suwanee Creek along her winding path babbling over the natural stone and sandy bottom that pre-dates the Civil War. Spacious country living spaces offer ample space for refined entertaining. Return home to 4 generous bedrooms with comfortable closets offering plenty of options for finding solace from today's busy world. Business, craft, or relax in either of the 2 lodge-like studio rooms with cathedral ceilings and classic exposed beam details. Pass large shared platters around an extra-long dining table in the center of the palatial country kitchen, surrounded by counter space and cabinets for days. Solid wood doors throughout slide into disappearing pockets or open traditionally with elegant antique knobs thoughtfully collected throughout the years. At the heart of this traditional home resting on the all brick floor to ceiling raised hearth is an authentic cast iron wood burning stove with the modern convenience of a gas starter and nearby hvac return air duct that circulates the heated air rising from the stove throughout the entire house on crisp cool Georgia autumn evenings. Step out of the kitchen or Living Room onto a screened back porch overlooking the elegant paver patio and established rose garden. Follow the zoysia sod path or take a short cut down the stone steps to transition from home to the base of operations for your farm or workshop. The 40' x 100' steel building has industrial shelving, a solid workbench, and 2 different automotive lifts that make lighter work of any project brought inside one of the 3 roll up doors. Another 3 bays of the workshop are open for open air shop space, convenient covered parking for RVs and farm equipment, or outdoor entertaining. A 3 stall horse barn sits just a few steps beyond the big workshop. Water service runs to both the large workshop and the horse barn for easy cleanup of any project. A large 4 board fenced corral adorns the hill between the house and the barn for entertainment by working with your animals, or watching the activity from the covered masonry front porch or floor to ceiling windows along the entire front of the manor house. Poured concrete pads connect the house drive-under garage and the large workshop. The entire floor of the large workshop is also poured concrete. Hard packed gravel areas between the workshop and house provide ample space to park trailers and equipment without blocking the long circular main drive. The barn and this property have housed horses and other livestock over the years. Privacy and functionality are all around this high-end peaceful estate hidden away between the trees and across the stream. It is easy to forget just how close are all the modern luxuries offered by the Gwinnett Exchange, Coolray Field, downtown Lawrenceville, and more until you drive across the steel and poured concrete private bridge and out of this driveway.
