No HOA. Total privacy. 5.55 acres of peaceful seclusion—yet minutes from everything. Perfectly positioned in Bethlehem, GA, midway between Atlanta and Athens, this 2023 custom-built estate delivers over 5,000 square feet of refined living designed for space, comfort, and freedom. Tucked behind a gated, fully fenced and level backyard, the possibilities are endless—add a private pool, workshop, barn, or simply enjoy wide-open space with no restrictions. A rare combination of land, luxury, and convenience, just 5 minutes from Hwy 316 and the Gateway at Bethlehem, featuring Publix, dining, entertainment, a hospital, and the new Kroger Marketplace. Love charm and culture? Downtown Monroe is only 20 minutes away with festivals, concerts, and local dining. Inside, main-level living—a true rarity—sets this home apart. From the moment you go inside, you’re welcomed by hardwoods, modern finishes, and an open-concept layout built for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious family room flows seamlessly into the custom chef’s kitchen with high-end stainless steel appliances. The primary suite on main is a private retreat, featuring a double-sided fireplace, a stunning floor-to-ceiling tiled spa bath, and a custom-designed walk-in closet. Two additional guest bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bath, a dining room, laundry/mudroom, and sitting area complete the main level with thoughtful functionality. Upstairs, enjoy a perfect in-law or guest suite with its own living area, bedroom, and full bath. The partially finished basement offers 710 sq ft of “man cave” space plus over 1,400 sq ft unfinished, already stubbed for baths—ideal for a home theater, gym, additional bedrooms, or custom retreat. Outside is where this home truly shines. Relax on the covered back porch, unwind in your private jacuzzi, or grill out using the hard-connected gas line. Nearly an acre of fenced yard keeps pets safe while your guests enjoy the $10,000 custom playground. The current owner has invested $40,000+ in upgrades, including a 900-ft concrete driveway, 360° camera system, alarm, and a custom-built covered estate entrance. The home is fully smart-wired—control lighting, HVAC, cameras, alarm, and garage from your phone. And the future? Walton County is within two years of welcoming the Rivian Manufacturing Plant, signaling strong long-term value and demand.
