Welcome to your own private slice of country paradise in the heart of Canton! This beautifully remodeled 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom ranch home sits on a fully fenced 9-acre property and offers the rare combination of peaceful acreage living, modern updates, and proven income potential with a thriving guest cottage. Renovated in 2022, the main home features approximately 1,950 square feet with an open concept floor plan highlighted by soaring vaulted ceilings and stunning 12-inch wide plank hardwood floors throughout the main living spaces. The spacious kitchen was designed with both beauty and function in mind, showcasing soapstone countertops and backsplash and custom island. Perfect for entertaining or everyday living. Two of the three bedrooms are designed as private suite-style retreats, offering flexibility and comfort for owners and guests alike. Major systems have been thoughtfully maintained with HVAC replaced just 3 years ago and the hot water heater only 6 years old, while the exterior siding and trim were freshly repainted in 2020. The full unfinished basement provides abundant storage or the perfect opportunity to expand and bring your own vision to life. Adding incredible value to the property is the stand-alone guest cottage, built in 2020 and operating as a highly successful Airbnb with 155+ outstanding reviews—creating consistent passive income. This charming 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom cabin features hardwood floors, a kitchenette, and a warm, thoughtfully designed interior. The open floor plan boasts cathedral ceilings crafted from Georgia pine, cedar, and reclaimed wood from the original century-old barn that once stood on the homestead, blending history with modern comfort. Guests love relaxing by the firepit, enjoying the peaceful views, and unplugging in the quiet beauty of Canton’s horse country while still being conveniently located just 10 minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, and everyday conveniences. With open pasture, usable acreage, a sought-after ranch layout, income-producing guest home, and a prime location just minutes from Milton and Alpharetta, this one-of-a-kind property truly checks every box. Enjoy the privacy of country living while remaining close to shopping, dining, and major interstates that can take you anywhere you need to go.
