A rare prime 0.72-acre homesite in downtown Alpharetta featuring a private, wooded rear buffer with permanent preservation. Positioned with R-15 zoning, this site offers a rare opportunity to create a secluded retreat just steps from City Centre. Offered as a blank canvas or with an available custom build package for a modern French-inspired residence featuring bespoke interior finishes. Architectural Vision: Envisioned as a 5,500-square-foot residence featuring a blended contemporary take on French Country, French Norman, and French Eclectic architecture, paired with bespoke interior finishes. Inside, a serene, minimalist aesthetic takes root through natural materials and warm, earthy tones. Wire-brushed white oak cabinetry and ceiling beams harmonize with soft, textured plaster walls throughout. Honed marble countertops and hand-selected tile create striking visual focal points while keeping functionality at the center. Across the main floor, 12-foot ceilings elevate the living spaces, anchored by a grand central fireplace. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and exposed wooden beams strike the ideal balance between tailored sophistication and cozy intimacy. Outdoors, the landscaped grounds mirror the home's philosophy of balance. Structured, formal plantings yield to softer, secluded nooks where nature feels both curated and wild. Merging architectural strength with subtle delicacy, the property offers a peaceful sanctuary steps from the heart of downtown.
