497 Oak Forest Drive

Welcome Home! This ranch style property is located in the heart of the Dawsonville 400 corridor, 2 miles to North Georgia Premium Outlets, 4 miles from Lake Lanier boat launch, 9.7 miles to nearest hospital and close to great schools. A former "Best Subdivision in Dawsonville" winner, Oak Forest Subdivision is a sought-after community with a clubhouse available for your large gatherings, swimming pool with resort style chairs, tables, and umbrellas, and modernized tennis/pickleball courts complete with stadium lighting for night play. Driving to the property is a short distance down the main street and as you pull into the driveway, you cannot help but notice the beautifully manicured, long front lawn. The house is positioned toward the back of the property showing off the one-acre lot that it sits on. The softly sloping driveway comes up beside your new home where you will find 3 garage spaces for vehicles, toys or lawn equipment. With the separate garage space, you could easily convert it into a workspace that fits your needs or hobbies! As you walk toward the main entrance you will notice well-manicured beds along the front of the house with a cozy rocking chair front porch. Upon entering through the front door, stepping into the entry foyer you have an open view with the formal dining room to your left and main living room centers the view. The tall ceilings in the living room open up beautifully, hosting a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, custom built-ins with live edge shelving and plantation shutters that make this room feel like the perfect place to relax at the end of your day. Just off the living room there is a half bath convenient for guests and on the right side of the house you'll find the primary bedroom with access to the covered patio, his-and-her closets, double vanity, walk-in shower with glass doors, separate tub and chandelier lighting that gives this bathroom the attention it deserves. Leaving the primary bedroom, you will find yourself back in the living area which leads to the next splendor of this home, the kitchen and keeping room. This kitchen is perfect for the chef in your life! Plenty of counter space, Kitchen Aid appliances and wide spaces allow you to make all of your favorite meals with ease. The keeping room is so cozy and inviting! While cooking a meal you can also mingle with guests, watch tv or just enjoy the relaxing crackle from the wood burning fireplace. The keeping room has access off one side to an open patio space, perfect for grilling and also has the private garage entrance. The opposite side of the keeping room has access to an oversized, covered patio with beautiful cedar finishes, room for hot tub, patio furniture and more! As you leave the kitchen, the barn door hides the corridor that includes a large coat closet, built in storage cabinets with broom/mop/vacuum storage, additional shelving, the laundry room and finally the main garage space. Past the barn door at the end of the hall walks straight into a full bath with stand-up shower and linen closet. On either side of the full bath, you will find two main level bedrooms. The stairway leading up will bring you to an oversized bonus room with two attic storage spaces, a hall closet, another full bathroom and finishes out with an oversized bedroom that has a full door leading into the main attic space where you will find additional space for storage and the furnace. Added bonus includes a one-year-old hot water heater with circulating pump to ensure you always have hot water readily available. Thoughtfully designed for full-time, main level living. The upstairs having two additional oversized rooms allows versatility to use as additional bedrooms or flex space that meets your needs. This is a property where pictures do not do it justice, you need to come see it for yourself. Give me a call for a private tour.
