About this home

Welcome to the most compelling luxury offering in Buford City Schools, a professionally designer-curated craftsman estate that delivers on every level. Breathtaking aesthetics, income-producing potential, and the flexibility for true multi-generational living, all in one extraordinary property. 5741 Shadburn Ferry Road is not merely a home. It is a lifestyle built to impress and designed to last. A grand covered entry way so expansive it lives like an outdoor room, framed by tapered river rock columns and complete with a hanging porch swing, ceiling fan, and room to entertain before guests ever step inside. It is a breathtaking approach that carries you naturally through the front door and straight into soaring open-concept living anchored by a floor-to-ceiling architectural casement window wall that floods the space with natural light and frames your private oasis like a living painting. Flanking it on either side, copper gas sconces glow warmly against exposed brick, creating a scene so striking it stops every guest walking through the door. Rich hardwood floors, brick accent walls, and those copper gas sconces set a tone that is warm, layered, and unmistakably curated — the work of a professional interior designer whose touch is felt in every room. The kitchen is any entertainer's dream, full of luxury touches throughout, including custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a professional Wolf range, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. This is a kitchen that inspires whether you are cooking for two or entertaining a crowd, with a view to the private backyard and pool as the cherry on top. The primary suite has been thoughtfully elevated with a designer-added sunroom that pours natural light into the space and offers a serene private retreat unlike anything else at this price point. The sunroom even includes its own fireplace, giving you all the charm for watching Hallmark movies in the winter. Four bedrooms and two and a half baths in the main house provide room for every stage of life. The detached guest house is a true showpiece in its own right, offering two additional bedrooms and two and a half baths split between two independent living areas: downstairs ADA(converted garage) suite and an upstairs one bed/one and a half bath apartment.

Outside, a private pool with sun shelf and tanning ledge, surrounded by mature trees and professional landscaping makes the backyard feel like your own secluded retreat. A private greenhouse adds an inspired touch that gardeners and home chefs will treasure.
