The beautifully updated kitchen features custom cabinetry, Calacatta quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and refinished hardwood floors that flow throughout the main living spaces. The main owner's suite feels like a true retreat with a luxurious spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and an impressively large walk-in closet.

The stepless entry makes this home especially accessible, while solar panels and a whole-house surge protector help keep energy costs down and the home protected, even during those famously unforgiving Georgia summers.
