Nestled within mature hardwoods on a cul-de-sac street in East Cobb's sought-after Riversound swim/tennis community, this striking French Provincial home makes a lasting first impression. A Juliet balcony with wrought-iron railing graces an arched French door, charming cast-stone gable crosses accent the dormer peaks, and a steeply pitched, multi-gable roofline with a graceful turret crown and stucco-and-stone facade set an elegant tone before you even step inside. Enter through the front door into a dramatic two-story foyer with a railed landing overlook that opens directly into an equally soaring two-story living room, where oversized windows fill the space with natural light. A formal dining room sits just off the living room, ready for holiday gatherings and dinner parties. At the heart of the home, an open chef's kitchen anchors the main level with rich, cherry-stained cabinetry, a furniture-style vent hood over the range, granite countertops, a peninsula with breakfast bar seating, and stainless steel appliances. It opens directly to the dining room and a sunny eat-in breakfast area, flowing seamlessly into the family room, the natural gathering spot for morning coffee or weeknight dinners. French doors lead out to a wraparound deck and a patio with a stone fire pit, extending the living and entertaining space outdoors among the treetops. Rounding out the main level is a large bedroom with a spacious walk-in closet and an en-suite full bath, perfectly suited as a guest suite, in-law suite, or second primary. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level beneath high ceilings finished with detailed dentil crown molding. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private fireplace, a spa-inspired bath with separate soaking tub and shower, and a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms sit on the opposite end of the hallway, offering added privacy, and share a Jack and Jill bathroom, ideal for kids or guests. A handsome wood-paneled study with custom built-ins and hardwood flooring rounds out the level, offering a quiet, dedicated work-from-home retreat. A generous 1,500-sf partially finished basement delivers versatile space perfect for a media retreat, home gym, recreation area, or expansive storage. The walk-up 850-sf attic, featuring 9' flat ceilings, offers exceptional storage or a prime expansion opportunity, a rare advantage in this price range. Completing the package, an oversized two-car garage adds even more functionality on top of the approx. 2,300 square feet of additional usable space between the basement and attic, further elevating the home's livability and long-term potential. Outside, enjoy multiple spaces to relax or entertain against a backdrop of mature trees and total privacy. Located next to an open greenspace and the neighborhood pool and tennis court, this home is within walking distance of the NPS's Gold Branch trailhead and the Roswell Chattahoochee Riverwalk, and just minutes from East Cobb and Roswell shopping and dining, with the added benefit of being zoned for award-winning Mount Bethel Elementary, Dickerson Middle, and Walton High School.
