Property Description
Welcome to a rare opportunity to own one of Ball Ground's most distinctive estates, an extraordinary Cape Cod-style residence set on 3.76 private acres at the end of a quiet, wooded lane. Just minutes from the charm of downtown Ball Ground, and less than an hour from both Atlanta and the Blue Ridge Mountains, this home offers the perfect balance of retreat and accessibility.
Crowned with a widow's tower, the home's striking architectural profile immediately sets it apart. Inside, over 9,000 square feet of refined living unfolds across 8 bedrooms and 6.5 baths, crafted with timeless old-world detail and modern convenience.
Highlights include:
Heated Saltwater Pool Retreat – Travertine decking, fountains, and wooded/seasonal Mountain views frame a custom-built pool with slide and outdoor shower.
Grand In-Law Quarters – A private 3-bedroom suite with its own entrance, driveway, kitchen, dining room, living spaces, laundry, and marble bath. Perfect for multigenerational living or long-term guests.
Entertainment at Its Finest – A split-level theater room designed for cinematic immersion, plus expansive wraparound porch, fireplaces, and outdoor gathering spaces.
Expansive Grounds – Trails, fruit trees, berry bushes, and even a private shooting range create a lifestyle as active as it is serene.
Chef's Domain – Wolf induction oven with hood and pasta arm, dual dishwashers, multiple pantries, and over 2.5 kitchens for culinary flexibility.
Superior Craftsmanship – Real hardwood and marble floors, wainscoting, Crawford ceilings, clawfoot tub, and custom mantles throughout.
Additional Touches – Tesla charger, full workshop, studio space, hardwired security and fire system, and a spiral staircase to the widow's peak with breathtaking views.
The primary suite offers a true retreat with two walk-in closets, a full dressing room, and a spa-inspired bath.
Designed for multigenerational living, entertaining, and private retreat alike, this estate blends Cape Cod elegance with the comforts of modern luxury. It is not just a home, but a landmark property, Ball Ground's true diamond.
