Welcome to this stunning 3-sided brick estate on a private 1.09-acre corner lot in the heart of Buford—where luxury, comfort, and family living come together with NO HOA! Built in 2017, this beautifully designed home offers the perfect setting for everyday living, entertaining, and making lasting memories. A rare and valuable distinction: this home is one of the original six residences on Old Friendship Rd built prior to the development of Friendship Estates, meaning it is not part of the subdivision and not subject to HOA restrictions—offering freedom and flexibility that is hard to find in this area. Ideally located just minutes from Mall of Georgia, Lake Lanier, Buford Corn Maze, with easy access to Interstate 985 and Interstate 85, this home is also located in a highly desirable area and zoned for Seckinger High School. Step inside to a warm and inviting layout featuring a formal dining room, spacious living room, and a bright breakfast area—perfect for gathering with family. The heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen, designed for both functionality and entertaining, complete with a large island, gas cooktop, wall oven with built-in microwave, walk-in pantry, and a dedicated coffee bar. The living room is a true showpiece with a cozy fireplace, custom built-in bookcases and cabinetry, and a stunning hardwood coffered ceiling that adds timeless elegance and character. The main level offers three generously sized bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom, including a luxurious owner’s suite featuring his-and-hers closets, creating a private retreat. Functional spaces like the mudroom, laundry room, and under-stair storage make everyday living effortless. Upstairs, the bonus room with a full bathroom provides the perfect flex space—ideal for a guest suite, media room, playroom, or home office. Step outside and enjoy true outdoor living. The covered patio with a gas fireplace creates a cozy year-round entertaining space, while the extended concrete area is ready for your dream outdoor kitchen. The beautifully landscaped yard enhances both curb appeal and relaxation. The fully fenced backyard offers a safe space for kids and pets, while the additional land beyond provides incredible flexibility—featuring established fruit trees and room for a garden, pool, or expanded entertaining area. A rare highlight is the secondary rear driveway with direct road access, perfect for parking a 5th wheel camper, boat, or multiple vehicles, with ample space to build an additional garage if desired. Complete with a 3-car garage and positioned on a desirable corner lot in a quiet, welcoming community, this home offers the perfect blend of space, privacy, and lifestyle. This is more than a home—it’s a place where family, entertaining, and everyday luxury come together. Don’t miss this rare opportunity!
