Your Guide to Moving, Living, and Thriving in Metro Atlanta

979 Bishop Road; Ball Ground, GA 30107

$585,000

Set on a gorgeous fenced lot in Ball Ground, this one pulls you in the moment you arrive. Craftsman curb appeal, mature trees, manicured landscaping, and a welcoming front porch — and the inside is just as impressive. The main living area is bright and open, with soaring ceilings and a stunning stone fireplace flanked by French doors that spill out to the covered back deck. The kitchen has been fully updated with navy lower cabinets, crisp white uppers, quartz countertops with bar seating, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The adjacent breakfast room is full of natural light with views of the backyard, and the formal dining room is an elegant touch with its arched window, wainscoting, and chandelier. Custom plantation shutters are featured for all of the front windows, adding a polished, classic finish to every room. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a walk-in closet, jetted soaking tub, double vanity, and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms offer flexible space for guests, kids, or a home office. The full finished basement adds serious square footage — a media room, a fourth bedroom/home office, a third full bath, a gym/flex space with barn doors, and a full workshop. Outside, the covered deck overlooks a large, private fenced backyard with plenty of room to roam. All of this in an unbeatable location: approximately one mile from I-575 and less than 10 minutes to the charming shops and dining of Downtown Ball Ground or the conveniences of Canton.
