Escape to your own private Southern retreat on 17.8 picturesque acres, where timeless charm, generous living spaces, and the beauty of nature come together to create a lifestyle that is truly special. With over 6,000 square feet, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a peaceful creek, a barn, multiple outdoor living spaces, and room to spread out, this exceptional estate offers the rare opportunity to enjoy privacy and tranquility without sacrificing elegance or comfort. From the moment you arrive, the classic rocking-chair front porch welcomes you to slow down, relax, and take in the peaceful surroundings. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors and a grand two-story foyer create an impressive first impression while maintaining the warm, inviting feel of a true Southern home. The main level is designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings, featuring a formal living room, an oversized dining room with room for 12 or more, and a spacious family room anchored by a gorgeous fireplace and built-in bookcases. The gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home, offering abundant white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, stylish backsplash, a large center island, breakfast bar, and bright breakfast area overlooking the surrounding property. A main-level guest bedroom with a full bath provides exceptional flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or a private home office. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite provides a peaceful retreat of its own, complete with a separate sitting area that can easily serve as a home office, reading nook, or quiet escape. The luxurious primary bath features his-and-hers vanities, separate tub and shower, Travertine tile floors and countertops, water closet, a second stackable washer and dryer, and abundant closet space. Generously sized secondary bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests, while the finished attic provides the perfect space for a children's playroom, game room, or additional flex space. An unfinished basement adds substantial storage and workshop potential. The true magic of this property comes alive outdoors. Multiple outdoor living spaces invite you to enjoy the acreage in every season—from rocking chairs on the front porch to relaxing on the side porch while taking in scenic views and evening sunsets, or gathering with family and friends around the stone firepit on the back patio. The expansive acreage provides endless opportunities for gardening, recreation, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy that are increasingly difficult to find. A barn offers additional possibilities with some TLC, while a peaceful creek meanders through the property, enhancing the natural beauty and creating a serene backdrop for everyday life. This is more than a home—it is a lifestyle. If you have been searching for space, privacy, natural beauty, and a home with room for both entertaining and quiet moments, this extraordinary Southern estate offers a rare opportunity to have it all.

R-2
Suburban Residential District
The R-2 District is composed of certain lands and structures in the county having a low density, predominantly single-family character and additional open area, where it is desirable and likely that such similar development will occur. This District emphasizes suburban-urban development rather than rural activities; however, it is recognized that agriculture and the raising of poultry and livestock may still be an activity in this district, and provision is, therefore, made for limited forms of such activity with appropriate safeguard for nearby residences. R-2 is appropriate in the Conservation Character Area, Rural Character Area and Community Residential Character Area of the Future Development Map of the Paulding County, Georgia, 2017 Comprehensive Plan as may be amended.
