A recently renovated property in the highly desirable Milton School District, this family friendly home is within walking distance of downtown Alpharetta and offers 5 bedrooms, 3 ½ bathrooms, a full walk-out basement and wrap-around 3-level back deck that opens onto a fully fenced-in backyard that includes a stream and is adjacent to a natural green space. The 0.67 acre lot is very private and is on a cul-de-sac, while the backyard provides a level of privacy and access to nature that very few homes have. The current owner upgraded both the landscaping and home with extra windows, skylights, barn doors and other features that are found in nearby subdivisions with homes costing $1-3M (e.g. Harrington Falls, Mayfield Place, Peyton Farms). Other added features include an extended driveway and side entrance to a mudroom that adjoins the kitchen, a gourmet kitchen offering a gas cooktop stove with pot filler, double ovens and warmer, a farm-style main sink and utility sink (each with disposals), two dishwashers, granite counters and vented wall-mount range hood. A 10-drawer center island with butcher block top allows for easy food preparation and cleanup. LED lighting and custom storage spaces add a modern touch to an open floor plan that makes large family events easy to host. Double French-style doors open from the kitchen to the main back deck, allowing for an indoor/outdoor space ideal for entertaining, nearly year-round. The roof is new, the exterior now features James Hardy board and batten siding and new Apex triple-pane windows; a flagstone wall along the main level waterline blends nicely into the landscaping and wrap-around driveway. A newly added front and side porch with shed-style roofs and cedar shake siding and posts bring the 38 year old home up to current building trends popular in the area. Passive solar lighting highlights the home in the evening and the Ring doorbells and floodlights are all integrated into the home WiFi system (currently linked to AT&T fiber optic Internet). The small, 63-home Mayfield subdivision has no HOA and there are two other homes in the neighborhood currently valued at $1.3M and $2.225M. At $264 per square foot, the property is a bargain and is an excellent investment (with rental potential) given the desirability of living near downtown Alpharetta.
