The character of an established home with the major improvements already completed! Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac at the back of Howell Wood, this original-owner home offers something increasingly difficult to find: architectural personality, a private wooded setting, NO HOA, and significant investments in the improvements that matter most.
Forget the aging cedar siding and original 1980s windows often found in homes of this era! The cedar siding has been replaced with durable, low-maintenance HardiePlank fiber cement siding, and ALL windows and exterior doors have been replaced, providing improved energy efficiency, comfort, and peace of mind. There's even a $10,000 whole-house generator, so an unexpected power outage doesn't have to interrupt your day. These are substantial improvements that allow the next owner to spend more time enjoying home and less time worrying about expensive exterior projects.
Inside, vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, warm hardwood floors, and a striking brick fireplace create an inviting atmosphere with architectural character you simply don't find in every home. Abundant natural light and wooded views bring the outdoors in, while the refreshed kitchen features white cabinetry, updated countertops, a generous island, and plenty of workspace for everyday living and entertaining.
All bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, including the primary suite with its vaulted ceiling and private bath. Downstairs, a spacious finished recreation area and full bath offer flexible space for entertaining, hobbies, a home office, or guests. Additional unfinished space provides excellent storage or workshop possibilities, and the exceptionally deep two-car garage offers room for much more than just two vehicles.
Outside, the fenced backyard provides a private setting for pets, grilling, and relaxing. But the property doesn't stop at the fence! The wooded lot extends beyond it to a creek, with no home immediately behind the property. Located near the back of this established, NO HOA neighborhood, the cul-de-sac setting offers a welcome sense of privacy and separation.
And the location? Howell Wood borders Berkeley Lake and is convenient to Peachtree Corners Town Center, Downtown Duluth, The Forum, shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and major commuting routes. Enjoy the peaceful feeling of being tucked away in the woods without giving up access to everything that makes this area so desirable.
Distinctive architecture, major exterior improvements, main-level living, a private wooded lot, and no HOA. This is a home where the big investments have already been made, leaving more time to simply enjoy living here.
