Stunning 2.49-Acre Waterfront Estate in Gated Bentwater Estates Welcome to this extraordinary English farmhouse-style estate by Harrison Design, nestled within the exclusive 10-home gated enclave of Bentwater Estates. Perfectly positioned on 2.49 acres, this stunning residence overlooks a private, fully stocked 4-acre lake, offering tranquil water views, wooded privacy, and access to scenic walking paths. The home’s exterior showcases timeless craftsmanship, featuring four-sided brick, premium stonework, and beautiful covered front and back porches. Step through the grand front doors into an airy foyer, where a custom iron staircase wraps around a modern lighting art installation. The main level is filled with natural light and features 12-foot ceilings, wide-plank hickory hardwoods, and rich architectural detail. The 50-foot great room flows seamlessly into a fireside living space with built-in wooden shelving and 16-foot-wide sliding glass doors that open fully to a covered stone patio with outdoor fireplace and grilling nook—blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor entertaining. At the heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen designed for beauty and function, with a 9-foot island and second prep sink, premium appliances including a 6-burner gas range with griddle & pot filler, built-in refrigerator/freezer, and 55-bottle wine fridge. Custom cabinetry extends to the ceiling, complemented by a super pantry w/ custom shelving & a coffee bar—all with lake views. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, with vaulted 17-foot ceilings and a dramatic wall of windows overlooking the lake. Enjoy private access to the back porch and a spa-inspired bath w/ a freestanding soaking tub, oversized dual shower, separate vanities, dual water closets, and custom his-and-her closets with a private washer & dryer. The ultimate in convenience. Also on the main level: a stunning formal dining room with butler’s pantry & beverage cooler, a private office with French doors opening to the front porch, a designer powder room, a mudroom, and an additional laundry room with abundant storage and a farmhouse sink. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms each feature ensuite baths and custom walk-in closets (three of the bedrooms have lake views). A spacious bonus room offers endless potential as a media room, playroom, or teen suite, while a second office provides an ideal setup for today’s working lifestyle. The BRAND NEW terrace level adds 2,576 square feet of flexible living space, designed for an Au Pair Suite or multigenerational living. It includes a fully ADA-compliant in-law suite with two bedrooms, full kitchen, private bath, and exterior access, plus a pre-planned elevator shaft for future accessibility. This level also features a 60-foot entertaining space, a theater room, and three oversized storage rooms. It's perfect. A separate finished structure adds flexibility—perfect for a gym, art studio, or fourth garage. The expansive, fully fenced backyard is ready for your dream pool, fire pit, weekend cornhole tournaments, or outdoor movie nights. It’s ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing in your own private retreat. Every detail of this home reflects intentional design and superior craftsmanship—from the rounded drywall corners and designer finishes to the light, airy palette and 10-foot ceilings. Located in one of the area’s top school districts and just minutes from downtown Alpharetta, Crabapple, Avalon, and GA-400, this exceptional property blends waterfront luxury with everyday convenience. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. One that invites barefoot games in the yard, tree-climbing adventures, and peaceful evenings by the water. Where luxury meets livability and timeless elegance meets modern comfort. Welcome Home.
