Description
A rare find is now available in the tranquil, lakeside community of the Cornish Trace neighborhood, an enclave of only 24 homes, adjacent to Lake Varner. Homes do not become available very often in this neighborhood. Sitting high on a wooded hillside, nestled among hardwood trees, this lovely split-bedroom ranch-style home is the perfect place to enjoy seasonal views of the lake from the large, covered front porch. Australian Cypress hardwood floors are beautiful throughout all common areas of the home. Plantation shutters on room windows where privacy is desired. The chef's kitchen is open to a bright and sunny breakfast room with access to a covered back porch and fenced backyard. Back porch and patio seating, surrounding a cozy firepit and a colorful flower garden, provide a relaxing oasis to enjoy outdoor living in any season. The front door of the home opens to a welcoming and spacious foyer with access to a formal dining room on one side of the foyer and a study/office on the opposite side. There is plenty of space for entertaining friends and family in the large great room with a cozy fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The oversized owners' suite provides privacy and ample space for a king bed, a sitting area, and for other large furniture pieces. Separate his/hers, walk-in closets are located in a small alcove outside the entrance to a spa-like bath, which includes a separate jetted tub and walk-in shower. Guests and other family members will enjoy privacy in two additional bedrooms located on the far, right-side of the home. This lovely home provides abundant privacy with 2.9 acres of natural/wooded, and lovely landscaped areas. A full, unfinished basement, with approximately 2500 square feet, can be finished to the new owners' specifications. The location of this home is convenient to the charming and historic Covington Square, with only a 10-minute drive, to reach shopping and multiple restaurants. Covington has also been home to the filming of: "in the Heat of the Night", Vampire Diaries, Dukes of Hazard, the Walking Dead, and other films. The new Monroe Pavilion Shopping Center, with Publix and many other shops and restaurants, is only 25 minutes away. Likewise, other small towns; such as, Madison, Social Circle, Monroe and Athens are only a few minutes away. Several movie production studios are also nearby.
