6-Bedroom Home on 2 Private Acres in Equestrian-Friendly Etowah Trails, Forsyth County, GA Two private acres. Room for horses. Huge spaces. Forsyth County. Priced to move. Welcome to 8805 Saddle Trail, a 6-bedroom, 4-bath home on 2.01 PRIVATE ACRES in the equestrian-friendly Etowah Trails community in Forsyth County, Georgia, one of the most sought-after counties in the state. Land, privacy, and a true horse-friendly neighborhood are getting harder to find in Forsyth County. This home delivers all three, along with the kind of space buyers can’t find in newer construction, at a price that makes it hard to ignore. OVER $60,000 IN CUSTOM STONEWORK UPGRADES. The backyard alone is worth the drive. The sellers invested more than $60,000 in custom stonework to create two distinct outdoor living spaces. A massive stone patio sits under a raised wood deck and is anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. A separate stone fire pit is ready for cool North Georgia evenings, s’mores, and long conversations. Beyond the stonework, the fenced portion of the property has room for horses, gardens, chickens, or whatever outdoor life you’re picturing, all framed by mature trees and real privacy. HUGE SPACES THROUGHOUT. This home was built for people who want room to spread out. The main-level primary suite with private bath offers true one-level living. A separate dining room comfortably hosts holidays and dinners that linger. The open kitchen and living area flows around a cozy fireplace and works for quiet weeknights or a full house of guests. A flexible bedroom off the kitchen with its own private entrance works as a home office, guest suite, in-law space, or sixth bedroom. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms, including an oversized bedroom stretching nearly 32 feet, surround an open overlook to the great room below. That room could be a bonus room, playroom, media room, or a huge guest retreat. Six bedrooms and four full baths give everyone their own space. ROOM TO GROW. In addition to 2,927 finished square feet, a full 1,853-square-foot unfinished basement is ready for a media room, home gym, workshop, extra bedrooms, or more living space. That is built-in equity and room to expand for years to come. MAJOR UPDATES ALREADY DONE. A RECENTLY REPLACED ROOF and WHOLE-HOUSE WATER FILTRATION mean the big-ticket items are taken care of, so you can move in and enjoy the home. FORSYTH COUNTY LOCATION. This is the rare chance to own acreage in Forsyth County. You get country privacy with all the convenience Forsyth is known for. Etowah Trails sits just off Hwy 369, within easy reach of Cumming, Lake Lanier, GA-400, and the North Georgia mountains.

Two wooded acres in Etowah Trails, a small Forsyth County community where every homesite is at least 2 acres and a community trail leads down to the Etowah River. What sets this lot apart is the work that's already been done. The soil report, approved septic plan and house location plan are complete, along with architectural floor plans drawn specifically for this lot. Completing these steps can often take more than six months and require a significant upfront financial investment. That groundwork is already behind you, so you can skip straight to the fun part: building. The approved plans feature a four-bedroom modern farmhouse with 3,660 heated square feet (2,585 on the main level and 1,075 upstairs) over a full 2,585 square foot basement with room for a home theater or more entertaining space, plus a three-car garage and covered front and rear porches. Once built, the front of the home will look out over the North Georgia mountains. Inside are two owner's suites, an office, a keeping room off the kitchen, a mudroom, and both a main-level and an upstairs laundry room. Build it as drawn or bring your own builder and plans. Zoned R1R with paved road frontage, and public water, electric and natural gas available at the road. Quick access to downtown Ball Ground, Gibbs Gardens and GA-400. Survey, soil report and full plan set available on request.
