Welcome to 253 Newport Road — where timeless architecture, privacy, and possibility come together in the heart of the Parkview district. Tucked into the established Nantucket community, this classic ranch sits on over half an acre of wooded serenity — offering both everyday comfort and future opportunity. Vaulted, beamed ceilings anchor the spacious family room, centered around a brick fireplace that feels like the heart of the home. The layout flows naturally — from formal dining to living spaces to a generous kitchen with breakfast nook and direct access to one of the property’s most special features: a screened porch and deck designed for year-round enjoyment. Step outside and you’ll understand what makes this property different. Multiple decks, mature landscaping, water features, and wooded privacy create a setting that feels removed — yet you’re minutes from Old Town Lilburn, Lilburn Park, the Greenway trails, shopping, dining, and commuter routes. The full daylight basement offers approximately 1,400 square feet of unfinished potential — workshop, expansion, home gym, in-law suite — the flexibility is here. Major system updates provide peace of mind: • Roof (2017) • HVAC (2013) • Septic system (2013 – approved for 4 bedrooms) • Main water line (2022)*Brand new driveway($20,000 update in late 2025) Optional swim and tennis membership at Nantucket is available within walking distance offering a great pool, tennis courts and Alta teams and a playground. This is a home with strong bones, character, and room to make it your own — in one of Gwinnett’s most established and desirable school districts

The R-1 district establishes a density of 4 dwelling units per gross acre. The R-1 district is applied to parcels to accommodate existing residential units on land having a predominantly single family detached unit subdivision character and associated uses which are anticipated to maintain such character; to accommodate traditional single family detached residential neighborhoods; and to accommodate revitalization and; or infill of such neighborhoods with residential products of comparable type and density. The district generally corresponds to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan Character Area designation of Established Residential.
