Welcome to this beautifully upgraded Craftsman-style home with a fully finished basement in the sought-after Forsyth County community of River Rock! Nestled in a vibrant swim/tennis neighborhood with top-tier amenities, this home offers access to a clubhouse, two sparkling pools, tennis courts, and an active HOA that keeps the community engaged and thriving. One of the original custom-built homes in the neighborhood, this gem was designed with high-end finishes and thoughtful upgrades that set it apart. The original owners have meticulously maintained every detail and recently added even more luxury touches! Step into the gourmet kitchen, now boasting freshly painted cabinets, sleek white quartz countertops, a stylish backsplash, and brand-new pendant lighting. This chef’s dream also features a 5-burner gas cooktop, double ovens, an island with barstool seating, a wine/coffee bar, and a walk-in pantry. Just off the kitchen, cozy up in the keeping room with a gorgeous stone fireplace—the perfect spot to unwind. The main level also offers a formal dining room with wainscoting, a dedicated office, a guest bedroom, and a beautifully updated full bath. The family room exudes warmth with a wood-burning fireplace, custom mantle, and built-ins, all leading to a brand-new covered patio that is truly an entertainer’s dream! With stunning wooden beams, pavers, a stone fireplace, and Edison lighting, this serene backyard oasis is the perfect place to relax. The professionally landscaped yard features mature trees, outdoor lighting, and a wrought-iron fence for privacy. Upstairs, the spacious owner’s suite awaits, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a jetted tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a generous walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, and the conveniently located laundry room adds to the ease of daily living. The fully finished basement is the icing on the cake, offering luxury vinyl flooring, a movie theater room, game room, exercise space, extra bedroom, and full bath. Plus, it’s stubbed and ready for your dream bar! Recent enhancements include fresh interior paint throughout, upgraded carpeting, and smart Schlage locks on all doors for modern convenience. The home has also been meticulously maintained with essential repairs, including chimney updates, electrical enhancements, and glass improvements. The garage has been refreshed with newly painted walls and flooring, and an electric vehicle charging outlet has been added for eco-friendly living. Outside, a full exterior pressure wash has given the home a crisp, clean look, while the upgraded sprinkler system ensures the lush landscaping stays pristine year-round. With a 3-car garage, access to resort-style amenities, and a thriving community atmosphere, this home truly has it all. Don’t miss your chance to make this stunning home yours!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
