A short drive north of Atlanta is the vibrant city of Alpharetta. One of the metro area’s most popular destinations, this thriving community offers an exceptional quality of life, making it a terrific place to live, work and visit. From its quaint downtown City Center to a world-class school system to 750± acres of green spaces and parks, Alpharetta has something for everything. If you are looking for a city with quiet charm and southern hospitality that boasts a strong community feel and an urban-meets-suburban lifestyle, Alpharetta is a great place to call home.
8500 Birch Hollow Drive is an outstanding property located just minutes to historic downtown Alpharetta. Nestled on a nearly half-acre lot, this stately Traditional-style home offers the perfect combination of style and comfort. Boasting a desirable flat front yard with mature landscaping and a sweeping brick staircase, the home’s exterior is brimming with charm and curb appeal. The warm and inviting foyer is the perfect place to welcome guests and sets the stage for the classic detailing found throughout the home.
Featuring a layout with an easy flow, the foyer opens into the dining room. Complete with hardwood floors, wainscoting and floor-to-ceiling windows that deliver views of the lush front yard, you can wine and dine your guests in dedicated elegance. On the other side of the foyer is a light-filled office/den. A pair of windows brighten the space, making it an enjoyable spot to set up shop. While currently being used for office space, it would also make a fabulous living room depending on your needs and lifestyle.
Beyond the foyer is the comfortable family room. Rich wood accents blend beautifully with the hardwood floors and offer gorgeous contrast with the room’s neutral palette. Details like a cozy fireplace, built-in bookshelves and wainscoting add character to the space, while a wall of windows brings the outside in with views of the home’s tree-lined backyard. A French door opens to the expansive rear deck, making it as great for entertaining as it is for kicking back and watching your favorite movie. There is also a powderroom conveniently situated just around the corner.
Adjacent to the family room is the updated eat-in-kitchen. Designed with modern touches, such as new floors, white cabinets, stone countertops, a tile backsplash and state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, every detail was meticulously planned to create a space that is both inspirational and functional. Complete with a coffee station/dry bar, it provides plenty of storage and serving space. And a bay window provides an inviting backdrop to the cozy breakfast area, making it a breeze to serve casual meals or enjoy your morning coffee. Located just off the kitchen is the laundry room with cabinets for storage and outdoor access – great for pets.
Take the stairs to the upper level to discover the gracious owner’s suite. Large enough to easily accommodate a king bed with room to spare, it has been thoughtfully designed to provide a peaceful retreat. It also features an oversized en suite bathroom with a double vanity, separate soaking tub and walk-in shower. There are three additional bedrooms and a full bathroom on this level. Each room is nicely sized and provides flexible options for use. Need more living space? Head down to the lower level to find a two-car garage and a partially finished daylight basement with flex space that can be used as a family room, additional office space, an exercise room or another bedroom. It is even stubbed for another full bathroom. Bring your imagination and make it your own.
One of the home’s key features is its private, fully-fenced backyard. A spacious renovated deck is accessible from the family room and has steps down to the backyard, making it ideal for entertaining or simply savoring quiet moments surrounded by the home’s natural setting. If for some reason you need even more green space, you can be at the Big Creek Greenway or Wills Park in minutes. And Roswell is nearby, offering even more outdoor recreation, as well as shopping, dining and entertainment.
If you have been looking for an updated home on a private, tranquil lot with mature trees and room to grow, you will not want to miss 8500 Birch Hollow Drive. Ideally positioned within the coveted Milton High School district and an easy drive to all that both Alpharetta and Roswell have to offer, it has a location that cannot be beat.
