This Amicalola Cottage sits on almost 4.5 acres and is an entertainer's dream. All common areas are open-concept, with a master on the main. A laundry setup is in the master closet, with an additional laundry room in the main hallway. High ceilings run throughout the home, giving a luxurious feel. A butler's pantry with an additional walk-in pantry complements the oversized country kitchen that overlooks the living room and dining room. All bedrooms on the main floor have their own en suite with plenty of closet space. The living room walks out to an oversized covered back porch that overlooks the pool, basketball court, and backyard. The basement is wide open, allowing for a second living room, bar area, or game room. The basement bedroom is the same size as the master, with an enormous walk-in closet. There is approximately 800 square feet of unfinished basement that would be ideal for a workshop, gym, and movie theatre. The basement walks out to a covered patio with a fireplace, then out to a beautiful Gunite pool and spa. This home was designed with the entertainer in mind. The agent is related to the seller.
