5812 Bentley Road is not simply a renovated residence-it is a rare acreage offering in one of Forsyth County's most desirable and rapidly evolving corridors, where privacy, land, and proximity increasingly no longer coexist at this scale. Set on approximately 1.51 private acres directly behind the highly sought-after Vickery Village community, this fully renovated 4-sided brick estate delivers an uncommon combination: seclusion and natural surroundings just minutes from dining, boutique shopping, and everyday convenience. The setting feels intentionally tucked away-quiet, buffered, and surrounded by mature natural landscape-yet remains only moments from the heart of Vickery Village and a short drive to Milton, Avalon, and Halcyon. Inside, the home offers a refined and thoughtfully updated interior spanning five bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms, designed to balance modern livability with timeless structure. Hardwood flooring throughout the main levels and fresh professional paint create a cohesive flow throughout the main and upper levels. The main floor centers around an updated gourmet kitchen that opens seamlessly into the family room, offering a natural gathering space while maintaining defined architectural separation and function. The upper level features four spacious bedrooms and three fully renovated bathrooms, including a primary suite designed for scale and comfort, complete with a custom-updated ensuite bath and an oversized walk-in closet. A secondary bedroom with its own walk-in closet adds additional flexibility and livability. The terrace level extends the home's functionality significantly, offering a fully finished recreation area with an entertainment kitchenette and wet bar, an additional full bathroom, and a private bedroom space with dual egress windows. This level is well-suited for guests, multi-generational living, or extended recreational use. Structurally, the property has been meaningfully improved, including a new roof installed within the past two months, providing immediate peace of mind for the next owner. The home totals approximately 4,942 square feet per public records, including 3,469 square feet above grade and a fully finished walk-out basement level. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify all measurements, as public record figures may not reflect recent updates or finished areas. Outdoors, the property unfolds into a private natural landscape bordered by mature wooded surroundings, offering a sense of separation and calm that is increasingly rare in this location. The acreage provides both usable space and preserved privacy, reinforcing the property's long-term value as land in this corridor continues to tighten. This is a residence defined not only by its renovations, but by what it represents: a limited opportunity to secure acreage, privacy, and proximity in a location where that combination is becoming exceptionally difficult to replicate.

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.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Equestrian facility
Greenhouse / nursery
Livestock production
Housing-Single unit
