About this home

Welcome to 8865 Saddle Trail, a beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home situated on 2 private acres in Forsyth County. Thoughtfully improved inside and out, this home offers an incredible combination of space, privacy, modern upgrades, mountain views, and resort-style outdoor living. Inside, enjoy beautiful views from the kitchen and living areas and a spacious chef’s kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The primary suite is a retreat of its own, featuring a NEWLY RENOVATED PRIMARY BATHROOM with over $30,000 invested, complete with dual vanities, a spacious walk-in shower with frameless glass, and beautifully updated finishes. Step directly from the primary suite onto your private porch with beautiful mountain views, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day. The fully finished basement offers the perfect setup for an in-law suite, extended guests, or additional entertaining space, complete with its own spacious living room with fireplace and a wet bar/kitchenette. The wet bar area flows directly out to the backyard and pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining space and convenient access to the home’s resort-style amenities. This separate living area provides incredible flexibility for multi-generational living while still feeling like a natural extension of the home. Step outside to a true backyard oasis featuring a heated and chilled saltwater pool with two waterfall features. The outdoor living spaces have also been thoughtfully upgraded with new deck railings, a RainAway under-deck ceiling system, and an outdoor spiral staircase, creating even more space to relax and entertain. An Invisible Fence adds another practical improvement to the property, ready for its next owners. The home has benefited from an extensive list of updates over the years, including an Owens Corning roof installed in 2022, new gutters, triple-pane windows, two Trane HVAC units, a water heater installed in 2023, smart IQ garage door openers, HardiePlank siding, fresh exterior paint and interior paint, and updated exterior doors. With 2 private acres, substantial recent improvements, a finished in-law suite, resort-style pool, multiple outdoor living spaces, and beautiful mountain views, 8865 Saddle Trail offers a rare combination of privacy, versatility, and amenities in Forsyth County.
