Officially designated as Georgia’s “City of Roses,” Thomasville is a charming boutique community in Southwest Georgia known for its Southern hospitality, majestic oak trees and historic buildings. Named a Great American Main Street City in 1998 and one of a dozen top places to visit in the U.S. by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Thomasville’s award-winning downtown is a shopper’s paradise and culinary dream, offering dozens of retail shops and restaurants. Rich in history, its brick-paved streets offer a glimpse into the grand Victorian era, a time during which the town was known as the “Winter Resort of the South.”
Just a few miles from Thomasville’s vibrant town center, nestled among the pines, is a private 4.6+/- acre estate located in the unique lakefront community of Spring Lake. With over 90+/- acres of commonly owned property, this conservation community featuring three stocked lakes, a pecan orchard and beautiful pine forests with trails and golf cart paths offers the peace and serenity of country living within the convenience of being only minutes to downtown.
From the moment you turn onto the drive, the property’s idyllic setting provides an immersive experience that delights the senses – light dances across a small pond, the faint smell of the pines fills the air and the lush landscape sways gently in the breeze – all leading toward a gorgeous, custom-built brick home oozing quintessential southern charm.
Perfectly situated behind a grove of pines, a rocking chair porch welcomes guests to this private, lakefront home. An ideal spot to relax with a cold glass of lemonade and enjoy the quiet solitude of this picturesque property.
A lovely stained glass door opens into the gracious foyer, revealing a spacious open-concept floor plan, rich details and quality craftsmanship. You are immediately struck by the custom millwork, deep moldings, hardwood floors and soaring ceilings. These features add character and sophistication to this outstanding home.
This expansive floor plan includes a formal dining room that can easily seat eight or more people. Fabulous floor-to-ceiling windows offer views of the front of the property. An adjoining butler pantry with lighted glass-front cabinets allows you to display your favorite pieces while providing the storage and serving space that makes entertaining a breeze.
A wall of windows in the two-story great room looks out over the tree-lined backyard. This warm and inviting room is the perfect gathering space for guests, complete with a fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and a vaulted ceiling with rich wood beams.
The large open kitchen is a cook’s dream. It features a bright sunny breakfast room, walk-in pantry, stainless steel appliances and gorgeous wood cabinets that blend beautifully with the hardwood floors. A large center island with a prep sink and separate breakfast bar provides additional counter space and options for additional seating or casual meals.
Off the kitchen is a sun-filled morning room with tile floors and beadboard accents. This charming room is wrapped in windows providing sweeping views of the property’s lush green landscape.
Extend your living space outside and enjoy the amazing South Georgia weather and fresh air from the home’s huge private deck. Accessible from the great room, breakfast room and morning room, as well as the backyard, this is the perfect place for outdoor dining and entertaining.
An enormous owner’s retreat featuring a tray ceiling and sitting area is conveniently located on the home’s main level. The spa-like bathroom boasts a vaulted ceiling, his and her vanities, a whirlpool tub and a separate shower.
