5200 Riverview Rd, Sandy Springs, GA 30327

This enchanting mountain lodge is sited on two secluded acres inside the perimeter and is home to numerous species of plants, birds, and animals. Wherever you look from the house there is an abundance of trees including several species of fruit trees. There is a charming stone pathway and wooden walkway leading down to the front door where you will be invited to enter by the handcrafted iron on the door and a gate beside it flaunting ginkgo leaves. Once inside if you look up you will see a handcrafted iron chandelier and looking to the right and facing east a stained glass window with the sun rising. The open floorplan has beams supporting the vaulted ceiling with handmade iron hangers and a fireplace and bookshelves. A handcrafted iron banister pulls you up to the office/sitting room overlooking the main floor with windows that look out over the property. The renovated kitchen with stainless appliances is in the Arts and Crafts style and opens to the dining area featuring a lovely built-in china cabinet with glass doors. There is a sunroom with a two-story ceiling and windows looking out over the property and an exit to the walkways surrounding the upstairs and downstairs so that anyone can be outside to take in the exquisite views. On this main level, there are two bedrooms, one with a fireplace and one updated bath. The upper part of the property is a lovely and sunny meadow space that is fenced and could be a child’s or dog’s play space as well as a space for a flower garden. Passing the half bath, the downstairs level has a den, two bedrooms, a bath, and a small area where a microwave can be set up. Again, there is access to the walkway around the house. Outside the kitchen is a small patio with a fire pit and steps up to the enclosed pool and the detached garage space. But wait!! With forethought, there is a half bath located in the garage space with an outside entry next to the pool! Henry David Thoreau’s Walden could not have been more idyllic than this charming hideaway so make your way over and see this gem for yourself. It is irresistible!
