There are new-construction homes, and then there is a home built by someone who understood exactly what a discerning buyer would notice. This 2025 modern farmhouse sits on 1.16 private acres in South Forsyth's fastest-growing corridor, and it was finished to a standard most builders reserve for their own portfolio, not their spec inventory. Six bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms unfold across 6,485 square feet - every bathroom finished floor-to-ceiling in Spanish Graspenia porcelain, with smart toilets throughout, a standard rare in Metro Atlanta new construction but standard-issue in luxury Istanbul and Dubai. The kitchen pairs walnut veneer Allure cabinetry with a Fisher & Paykel, Thor, and KitchenAid appliance suite built for a household that actually entertains. European blinds and custom imported cabinetry carry the same uniform finish grade through every room - no mixed-tier substitutions anywhere in the house. Two foyers, an upstairs laundry, and a primary suite with its own fireplace, walk-in, and linen closet round out a floor plan designed for how a family actually lives, not how a floor plan photographs. Outside, a 20-by-40 gas-heated pool runs on its own independent AC zone - usable eight months a year - bordered by 5-to-8-foot porcelain decking that stays cool underfoot and reduces the pool zone's cooling load. The grounds themselves were engineered, not landscaped as an afterthought: a full site plan from GAK Engineering governs the 1.16 acres, and the owner has planted 20 mature olive trees and 40 mixed fruit trees - an edible-landscape investment that matures into a full working orchard within a decade of ownership, the kind of detail a buyer notices on the second walk-through, not the first. Location does real work here, too. This property sits inside the South Forsyth High School attendance zone, minutes from Northside Hospital Forsyth's active expansion - a six-story, 260,000-square-foot patient tower now under construction as part of the hospital's push toward 500 beds by 2028 - and inside the corridor where Microsoft's presence and Forsyth County's newly approved data center campuses are actively pulling senior talent into the county. Halcyon is seven minutes away, The Collection at Forsyth ten, Avalon fifteen, Lake Lanier twelve. This home was built for two buyers. The first is the relocating executive family - dual-income, $500K-plus household, two school-age students, drawn by top-rated schools and a new build that never asks them to compromise on finish. The second is the discreet international or physician buyer, often introduced quietly through a referring broker, who reads imported materials and uniform craftsmanship as the language of care rather than a feature list. no price-reduction history to explain away - this is the rare relaunch where the home, the land, and the address all upgrade at once."

Agricultural District
Land designated as agricultural constitutes a valuable natural resource whose protection is in the public interest. The agricultural district is established to maintain those areas with land characteristics such as soil moisture, temperature and content suitable for farming (fields, pastures, farmsteads, specialty farms), dairy, livestock, forestry operations and other agricultural activities; to protect land used or needed for food production and other agricultural uses from encroachment by untimely and unplanned residential, commercial or industrial development; and to permit the continuation of agricultural uses in areas where it remains viable.; The agricultural district is intended to provide for the continuation of agriculture as a viable land use and component of the local economy until market conditions and public services support conversion of agricultural land to rural or suburban residential land subdivisions and uses, or other uses. The agricultural district also helps to preserve the rural, open space character that exists in many portions of the county. Such areas are accessed only by rural roads, do not have existing public sanitary sewerage facilities, are predominantly rural in character, and consist substantially of larger unsubdivided and undeveloped tracts.
