Welcome to the premier 55 + community of Cresswind at Lake Lanier. This REDWOOD model sits on a 25-acre lot that backs up to woods and is conveniently located within walking distance of the clubhouse amenities, the community garden, and the dog park. It has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, an office, dining room, great room, a screened lanai, and an unfinished terrace level. The main floor is 2840 sq ft, and the unfinished terrace level of 2721 sq ft is ready for your customization and is plumbed for a future bath. Pride in ownership shows. A professionally painted interior, beautiful hardwood flooring in the main living areas, elegant crown molding in the dining room, great room, and primary bedroom, and plantation shutters adorn every window. The elegant formal dining room features crown molding, a tray ceiling, and a chandelier, and can easily seat 12+. The office is located at the front of the home, offering a nice view of the comings and goings of the neighborhood, and a TV connection can make this room a second TV room. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, offering plenty of cabinets with slide-outs for convenience, a large center island, a breakfast bar, a walk-in pantry, stainless-steel appliances, including double ovens, a gas cooktop, a microwave, a refrigerator, and recessed lighting. The great room has an open sunroom that adds space for a casual dining table, a card table, or a reading area. The gas-log fireplace offers bookshelves and a cabinet on each side. Plenty of light for the room comes from a sun tunnel and recessed lighting. A ceiling fan will keep you cool in the warm summer months. Relax in the screened lanai overlooking the woods and enjoy the two ceiling fans for comfort. The large primary suite has lots of light streaming in from the abundant windows. It includes two walk-in closets, a walk-in shower, a dual vanity with framed mirrors, and a makeup vanity. The second and third bedrooms on the other side of the home have walk-in closets and share a Jack-and-Jill bath with a shower/tub combination and separate vanities. Completing the home are a powder room and a spacious laundry room with cabinets for storage. The desirable EXTENDED garage has a textured, epoxy floor. The unfinished terrace level is plumbed for a bath, offers storage or can be finished to your needs, and opens to a spacious patio and backyard.
