5 Georgia New Builds, Mountain Retreats, and Golfside Acreage

A study in contemporary new construction, this Wilmington Island residence sits within the new Natalie’s Place subdivision and brings a thoughtful mix of polish and practicality. Inside, hard wood floors run underfoot, while all-tile bathrooms keep the finish palette clean and durable. Decorative and functional upgrades are carried through with an upgraded trim package, complemented by a large laundry room designed for everyday ease. A screened porch extends the living space outdoors, and a tankless water heater adds modern efficiency. The oversized garage is built with SUVs and trucks in mind, and the home is wired for a whole-home generator. Out back, professional mature landscaping and a privacy fence create a genuinely secluded setting—an outdoor retreat that feels intentionally composed for quiet evenings at home.

On a residential street in Alpharetta’s Waters Mill neighborhood, this lovingly maintained home reflects 35 years of careful stewardship, now beautifully updated and ready to live in. Recent improvements—new roof, windows, and HVAC—bring everyday peace of mind. The main level centers on an updated eat-in kitchen and a spacious family room, balanced by a formal living room that easily serves as a home office. A full laundry room adds practical ease, while seamless access to a screened porch and deck extends daily life into a private backyard. Upstairs, hardwood floors run throughout four bedrooms, including a refreshed primary suite. The walk-out basement provides finished living space, a full bath, and unfinished storage, with flexibility for a future fifth bedroom or guest suite. Set where Alpharetta, Johns Creek, and Roswell meet, it’s a home designed for comfortable, evolving routines.

Set on more than 7 acres just off Shakerag Road near the Cohutta Wilderness, this true 4BR/3.5BA log cabin offers a rare sense of seclusion in North Georgia.

Inside, classic log-cabin warmth is paired with a beautifully updated kitchen, while multiple bonus rooms provide flexible space for additional sleeping quarters, recreation, or relaxed entertaining. A screened-in porch extends the living experience outdoors, inviting slow mornings and long evenings spent taking in the scenery. The usable acreage lends itself to gardens, trails, and outdoor gathering spaces, with an attached 2-car garage plus a detached garage/workshop and carport for gear and storage. Days here naturally revolve around hiking, biking, and quiet.
