Set on 12 beautifully maintained acres in DeKalb County, this property offers a serene setting that's hard to find. A private pond with pier creates a natural centerpiece, inviting you to sit and take it all in, while a cozy cabin tucked just beyond the water adds a sense of privacy and intention to the landscape. The home is positioned to take full advantage of its surroundings, with composite deck and pergola designed for gathering or simply slowing down. Inside, you’ll find an updated kitchen with granite countertops, a four season room, and a finished basement with mini bar—offering flexible space for everyday living. The heated and cooled outbuilding includes a kitchenette, half bath, and walk-up floored attic. This stunning property is a must see!
