Seller is offering $15,000.00 at closing to be used toward buyer's closing costs, a rate buy-down, or kitchen upgrades with an acceptable offer.-- Opportunity to Lease-to-Own, available! Call listing agents for details. Walk in and the first thing that happens is the light finds you. Wide windows pull the Georgia sun deep into an open floor plan where dark hardwood floors ground every room with warmth and quiet elegance. High ceilings stretch above the main level - not just tall, but generous - the kind that make you exhale without knowing why. The Great Room doesn't funnel you into one arrangement. It opens up and lets you live in it - a reading corner here, a conversation area there, a space that bends to your life instead of the other way around. The kitchen faces all of it. While something good is cooking, you're still part of the room - still in the conversation, still in the light. A breakfast area wraps you in for morning gatherings, and a granite bar ledge pulls up casual seating right where the action is. The primary bedroom lives on the main level - everything you need without a single stair. But if you want a different feel, head upstairs to the large finished room over the garage. Private. Quiet. It's own full bath. Whether it becomes a guest suite, a second primary, or simply a retreat - the choice is entirely yours. Step outside to the covered patio. The backyard is private, unhurried, and framed just right for a morning coffee that turns into an hour. You're on a cul-de-sac with only one neighbor to your left. In a community this size, that kind of quiet is rare. And then there's Cresswind itself. This is not a 55+ community that asks you to slow down. It's one that hands you a full life and says - go live it. A stunning clubhouse. Indoor and outdoor pools. A fitness center built for people who take their health seriously. A community garden where you can grow your own vegetables plot by plot. And every afternoon between 3:30 and 4:30, the Pooch Patch fills up with dogs and neighbors and the kind of easy conversation that makes a place feel like home. But the crown of it all is Lake Lanier - one of Georgia's most beloved lakes - right at your doorstep. Dock access. Boat storage on site. The water life, if you want it, is already waiting. This is not just a home. This is the chapter you've been working toward. Seller is offering a hassle-free design package including cabinet painting and a new stainless steel appliance package - inquire with listing agent for details. Virtual design concepts shown.
