Exclusive Lakefront Living in Roswell — One of Only 12 Homes on the Chickering Lake! There are homes… and then there are rare opportunities. Welcome to an extraordinary lakefront residence — one of only 12 homes in the coveted Chickering swim & tennis community with direct lake access. From the moment you enter, soaring 22-foot vaulted ceilings and rich Jacobean real oak hardwood floors create a sense of understated luxury, where every space feels both grand and inviting. Designed for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, the home offers a seamless flow between a spacious eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, and expansive living areas. With 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 2 half baths, this home is as functional as it is beautiful — thoughtfully designed to accommodate both privacy and connection. One of the home’s most compelling features is its in- law suite layout: On the main level, a private ensuite offers the perfect setting for a guest retreat, in-law suite, or convenient main-floor living. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite becomes a true sanctuary — complete with a sitting room, trey ceilings, a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a soaking tub and an open Italian marble shower, along with a custom-built closet designed for both elegance and function. Additional bedrooms are generously sized and connected by a well-appointed shared ensuite. And then… the lifestyle truly unfolds. The lower level terrace walk-out opens to multiple finished flex spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining — including an expansive family room, private in-home theatre, a cozy reading nook, and private bathroom and fifth bedroom, while flexible bonus spaces offer a private office, or even a serene yoga retreat overlooking the lake... creating a lower level that feels like its own private retreat. Step outside and you’ll discover what makes this home unforgettable. Positioned on a corner lot with direct lake access, the outdoor setting is both peaceful and captivating — highlighted by a charming bridge and a tiered drainage feature that gently cascades like a natural waterfall, adding movement, sound, and a sense of serenity to the landscape. This is where mornings feel calm, evenings feel elevated, and weekends feel like a getaway—without ever leaving home. Highlights include:• Private in-home theatre• Expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces• Large secondary bedrooms• Swim & tennis community amenities• Beautifully situated the lake for enhanced privacy Located just minutes from the charm of Canton Street, parks, and top-rated schools, this home offers the perfect balance of connection and retreat.
