Welcome home to 285 Bear Branch Rd, a true modern masterpiece! Custom-built in 2024 and loaded with upgrades, this stunning 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home sits on nearly an acre and delivers desirable curb appeal from the moment you arrive. This home's exterior will have you in awe with its light-colored brick and white board-and-batten exterior, a dark architectural shingle roof accent, and a rocking chair front porch that says "stay a while." All complimented by a well-manicured yard and gorgeous landscaping. Step inside to a thoughtfully designed layout built for elegance and functionality. The living room anchors the home with custom built-in shelving flanking the all-brick fireplace, the kind of detail that turns a house into a home. In the kitchen, a granite waterfall island steals the show, offering both stunning style and serious function for entertaining guest or everyday meal preparation. To give the kitchen that extra flare, custom cabinetry, gold fixtures and a beautiful herringbone backsplash were all installed during the build. Retreat to the master suite on the main level, where you'll find LVP flooring, a double trey ceiling and plenty of space to unwind. The master bath is ideal for his and hers space featuring a double vanity, tile shower, soaking tub and large walk-in closet. On the main level of the home, you'll find two more bedrooms with great space, perfect for kids or guests. A separate office/flex room provides adequate room for that work-from-home job or just a place to escape for quiet time. Upstairs, a fourth bedroom with a full bath attached is available for a guest bedroom, play area or game room. Out back, the screened-in porch adds satisfaction and comfort with its own wood-burning fireplace to enjoy the upcoming cool fall evenings with family and friends. A privacy fence was added post-construction, encompassing the entire backyard to showcase the hydroseeded bermuda lawn that flourishes in the Middle Georgia climate. A poured grill pad was added just outside the kitchen window to allow the aroma of grilled meat to fill the air at dinner time. This two year old home is better than brand new, the upgrades are already in place and the location can't be beaten. Schedule your showing today!
