Timeless Elegance Meets Modern Luxury in Sandy Springs This stately 6-bedroom Georgian Colonial exudes classic sophistication while boasting more than $160K in thoughtful upgrades. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the Sandy Springs Park District, this all-brick masterpiece offers a rare blend of enduring architecture and turn-key modern living. Step inside and immediately feel the difference-flawlessly maintained and move-in ready, this home is the definition of magazine-worthy living. Luxurious Interiors The primary suite has been transformed into a spa-inspired sanctuary with a $32K renovation, featuring an oversized shower and elegant double vanity. A true retreat designed for rest and rejuvenation. The chef's kitchen is a showpiece straight out of HGTV, showcasing stone countertops, premium stainless appliances, and a generous island-perfect for both intimate mornings and lively gatherings. From here, gaze out onto your private, fenced backyard oasis. Elevated Entertaining Designed with entertaining in mind, the expansive multi-level deck and covered patio-complete with recessed lighting and ceiling fan-create an inviting atmosphere for al fresco dining, game nights, or elegant soirees, rain or shine. Endless Possibilities The terrace level offers unrivaled flexibility: a private in-law suite, a teen retreat, or the ultimate entertainment lounge. A Private Retreat with Community Charm Set on a half-acre, fully fenced lot with two flat play areas and a rear gate to a charming cul-de-sac, this home offers both privacy and convenience. All within Lost Forest, one of Sandy Springs' most coveted communities, where neighbors gather for seasonal parades, holiday celebrations, wine tastings, and book clubs. With Abernathy Greenway and Lost Corner Preserve just a short stroll away, this home embodies the perfect balance of refined living, vibrant community, and natural beauty.
