Tucked within the natural beauty of Smoke Rise-one of the area's most sought-after communities-this stately brick traditional offers a rare blend of privacy, mature landscaping, and timeless architecture. With solid construction and generously sized rooms, it's a home that reflects a level of craftsmanship that's increasingly hard to find. Set on a picturesque lot, the property lives like a private retreat, where an all-glass sunroom fills the home with natural light and provides year-round enjoyment of serene backyard views. A flagstone patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or relaxed evenings. Inside, the home offers approximately 3,700 square feet of finished living space, plus an additional ~1,200 square feet of basement space. A curved, newly restored brick entry leads to a dramatic two-story foyer with an overlook balcony, setting the tone for the home's spacious and functional layout. The fireside family room, formal dining room, and main-level guest suite provide flexibility for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a breakfast nook, while a second fireplace in the living room adds warmth and classic character. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite-with a double vanity-serves as a comfortable retreat. A second-floor library opens into a generous bonus room, offering versatile space for a home office, media room, or additional living area. Front and rear staircases enhance everyday flow and convenience. The sellers have invested approximately $88,000 in meaningful updates and repairs, with a focus on long-term value and major systems. Improvements include updates to septic tank components; replacement of an HVAC unit and furnace; installation of a new hot water heater; 32 new energy-efficient windows; a roof; a whole-house water filtration system; and updated ceiling-mounted light fixtures. Exterior enhancements include fresh trim painting, replacement of the brick mailbox, and a new insulated steel garage door and opener. With these significant improvements already completed, the home is well positioned for its next chapter. The list price reflects both these system upgrades and the opportunity for a buyer to personalize interior cosmetic finishes to suit their style. Smoke Rise is known for its unique combination of natural beauty, generous lot sizes, privacy, and a long-established community identity. Winding roads, mature trees, and a peaceful setting create a true sense of retreat while remaining connected to everyday conveniences. Residents enjoy proximity to Smoke Rise Country Club (membership optional) and Stone Mountain Park, along with easy access to dining, shopping, and community events in Tucker and Lilburn. Convenient access to US-78 and I-285 makes commuting to major employment centers simple, offering an ideal balance of tranquility and accessibility. Blending privacy, natural surroundings, thoughtful improvements, and generous square footage, this home presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the character of an established community while making it distinctly your own.
