Set behind its own gated entrance at the end of a private drive, this extraordinary estate is surrounded by winding creeks and towering 80-foot hardwood trees, creating a level of privacy and natural beauty that feels worlds away—yet the property sits just 1.52 miles from GA-400, less than ten minutes from Cumming City Center, and only minutes from Lake Lanier. Completely renovated, the home blends refined design with an astonishing collection of amenities, delivering a true resort-style living experience & unique entertaining opportunities in the heart of Cumming. Inside, the residence reflects a warm, sophisticated Restoration Hardware–inspired aesthetic rooted in balance, symmetry, and calming continuity. Gorgeous hardwood floors and exceptional designer lighting set the tone, while smooth plaster fireplaces add sculptural, modern warmth to the main living spaces. The open, flowing floorplan keeps the home elegant yet comfortable, with natural textures and intentionally layered finishes creating a sense of harmony throughout. Two exceptional primary suites anchor the home—one on the main level and a second, expansive retreat upstairs. The upper suite spans approximately 1,260 square feet and includes a fireside sitting area, beautifully designed his-and-hers custom closets, an oversized spa-style bath, and large windows overlooking the pool and wooded landscape. A dedicated 1,000 Mbps private fiber line powers the state-of-the-art Control4 smart-home system, offering seamless management of lighting, audio, security, and entertainment. Major upgrades include a newer top-of-the-line Camelot II roof, Pella windows and doors, a 30-zone irrigation system, and an elite soft-water filtration system supported by private well water. An attached four-car garage is complemented by an additional 840-square-foot drive-through RV garage. Outdoors, the estate unfolds into a complete recreational destination. A gorgeous heated pool and spa sit at the center, surrounded by an LED-lit tennis court, pickleball and bocce courts, a soccer field, basketball and volleyball courts, a 3,000-square-foot rubber playground, a 100-yard chipping range, a five-hole 450-yard disc golf course, a skeet area, a mini moto-cross track, and a 200-foot zip line—an unparalleled setting for activity, play, and hosting. Multiple outdoor living spaces, including a covered dining and lounging patio, a cabana, and a 2,800-square-foot pool deck, make the property ideal for gatherings of any size. Wellness is equally prioritized, with a 660-square-foot commercial-grade fitness center overlooking the pool and an infrared sauna equipped with salt therapy, aroma therapy, red-light therapy, and sound-vibration healing. The fully finished, recently renovated terrace level is an entertainer’s haven, complete with a swanky bar, card room, music studio, fifteen-seat 4K theater, secondary living room, and direct walk-out access to the grounds. An additional guest suite on this level offers privacy for long-term guests or multigenerational living. Although completely private, the estate offers unmatched convenience—close to downtown Cumming, Lake Lanier, high-end dining, hospitals, major retail, and just an hour from Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The property may also be sold furnished, creating a rare turnkey opportunity.
7160 Bennett Road is more than a home—it is a destination, a retreat, an entertainer’s paradise, and a complete resort-style living experience, offering beauty, privacy, and extraordinary amenities in one of Cumming’s most coveted settings.
