Nature lovers! Welcome to your Sandy Springs retreat nestled in the desirable River Chase swim/tennis community, in the Heards Ferry Elementary and Riverwood International Charter School district. Just a short walk to the neighborhood pool, tennis courts, and Chattahoochee River access, where you can launch and store your kayak, this multi-level, low-country style property includes a main house and a carriage house above the garage. In addition, an apartment on the terrace level with a separate entry makes an ideal au pair or in-law suite. Both buildings are well-maintained, with a new architectural roof on each. Heards Creek runs through the front of the property, creating a natural waterfall. Admire the lush landscaping from your rocking chair porch, private bridge, creekside trail, and gazebo. As you enter the 5 BR/5 BA main house via the elegant front stairway, you'll appreciate the abundance of natural light and hardwood floors in the spacious great room and modern kitchen. A guest suite on the main level with new carpet offers views of the creek and a separate entrance. The kitchen features a large island, microwave drawer, 6-burner range, and induction cooktop, with French doors leading to a covered deck. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a recently enlarged walk-in closet and a wide balcony overlooking the creek. Two additional ensuite bedrooms and a tucked-away laundry room complete the top floor. The sun-filled terrace level was recently renovated to include a kitchenette with pantry and laundry room. The two-story 1 BR/2 BA carriage house features a nice sized kitchen, living area, W/D, and a porch overlooking the creek. The oversized garage can accommodate three cars and includes a workshop. Separate parking is available for the carriage house. Enjoy this beautiful, friendly neighborhood with an optional HOA. City Springs, Cochran Shoals, Truist Park, Buckhead, and Chastain Park are just minutes away. Top public and private schools are within a few minutes' drive, as are 285/400/75. Don't miss your opportunity to experience these amenities, without City of Atlanta taxes!
