BRAND NEW ROOF installed May 2026! Welcome to the Shady Grove Peninsula, where the traffic is light, the trees are tall, and the deer occasionally judge your landscaping choices. Tucked away on a peaceful, wooded lot near Lake Lanier, this raised ranch delivers the kind of privacy and space buyers keep searching for... and rarely find under $500K in Forsyth County. The main-level primary suite makes everyday living easy, with no stairs between you and your morning coffee. And speaking of coffee, the screened-in deck might just become your favorite “room” in the house. Overlooking the fenced backyard and private wooded acreage beyond, it's the perfect spot for slow mornings, evening wine, or pretending you're on a mountain retreat instead of just minutes from shopping, dining, and the lake. Inside, the fireside living room feels warm, comfortable, and genuinely livable. Not “museum house” livable. Real life livable. The kind where people actually put their feet up and stay awhile. Downstairs, the large bonus room with full bath gives you flexibility for guests, a home office, gym, media room, playroom, or the legendary man cave/she shed combo diplomacy solution. Outside, the lifestyle only gets better. Young Deer Park and boat launch are just minutes away, making kayaking, fishing, boating, and spontaneous “let's go to the lake” days part of your normal routine. And unlike some homes that require a second mortgage after closing for major updates... this one already has a brand new roof. Your insurance agent just breathed a sigh of relief. With a 2-car garage, fenced yard, wooded privacy, highly rated Forsyth County schools, and a location that feels tucked away while still convenient to everything, this home hits a rare sweet spot. The floor plan is included in the photos. See it before someone else claims your screened porch dreams. Forsyth County offers highly rated schools and a generous senior tax discount.
