Welcome to an exceptional private estate in Dawsonville's highly sought-after Oak Forest community, where refined craftsmanship, generous living spaces, and beautiful wooded surroundings come together on a premium 1.55-acre lot. Established by renowned developer Jim Cowart, Oak Forest offers a peaceful setting with an enviable location-just half a mile from GA-400 and minutes from Lake Lanier, the North Georgia Mountains, local vineyards, hiking and biking trails, kayaking, and exceptional shopping and dining, all approximately one hour north of Atlanta. A beautifully landscaped, flower-filled driveway welcomes you to this meticulously maintained residence, where an expansive front porch welcomes you inside. The three-car garage features fresh epoxy flooring, while a grand two-story foyer introduces the home's spacious and thoughtfully designed interior. The main level offers a formal dining room and an impressive en-suite bedroom tucked behind elegant 30-pane French doors, providing the flexibility to serve as a secondary primary suite, guest retreat, or formal living space. Rich hardwood floors extend throughout the main level and into the soaring great room, where a striking fireplace can be enjoyed with either wood-burning or gas logs. The beautifully appointed chef's kitchen is designed to impress, featuring premium granite countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances, and a magnificent 36-inch Bertazzoni Master Series five-burner gas range. Just beyond the main living areas, the peaceful covered back porch creates an ideal space for morning coffee, evening gatherings, and year-round outdoor entertaining, complete with a dedicated grilling and prep area overlooking the expansive wooded backyard. Upstairs, an elegant wood-tread staircase leads to a luxurious primary suite featuring a spacious sitting area and a custom-designed walk-in closet. The second level also includes an additional en-suite bedroom, along with two generously sized bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, providing exceptional flexibility for family and guests. All upstairs bedrooms boast new high-end carpeting. The finished terrace level adds an incredible dimension to the home and is perfectly suited for an in-law suite, multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or a private apartment. This expansive level includes a kitchenette, large bedroom, full bath, abundant storage, and a spacious private office with a bay window and walk-out access. The office could easily be converted into a seventh bedroom, offering even more possibilities. Outside, the exceptionally private grounds are every bit as impressive as the home. Multiple charming seating areas provide inviting spaces for entertaining, while the beautifully landscaped property showcases an abundance of specimen trees, vibrant shrubs, and lush perennial plantings. A fully integrated irrigation system helps keep the landscape thriving throughout the year. For those who appreciate nature and privacy, serene walking trails meander through the property and lead to a picturesque creek that flows along its entire length. Thoughtful upgrades-including a whole-house Generac generator and central vacuum system-add convenience, peace of mind, and lasting value. With its remarkable combination of privacy, craftsmanship, flexible living spaces, and an exceptional Dawsonville location, this is a property that truly needs to be experienced in person.
