About this home
Better Than New in Historic Downtown Ball Ground! Only three years young, this beautifully upgraded 5-bedroom, 3-bath traditional home offers the perfect blend of modern design, thoughtful upgrades, and small-town charm-all just a short two-block stroll to the heart of historic Downtown Ball Ground, where you'll enjoy unique shops, restaurants, parks, and community events. From the inviting rocking-chair front porch to the light-filled open floor plan, this home is designed for comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining.
The current owners have invested over $14,000 in quality improvements, including professional landscaping, a fenced backyard, upgraded lighting, custom window treatments, enhanced hardware and faucets, elegant stair railings and balusters, a custom-built office with desk and shelving and just repainted the entire exterior! Step inside to a welcoming foyer that opens to a banquet-sized dining room and an inviting great room centered around a cozy fireplace. The chef's kitchen overlooks the family room and features a large quartz island with seating for three, stainless steel appliances (sale includes the refrigerator), abundant cabinetry, and a spacious walk-in pantry.
Just off the great room, the screened porch provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy your morning coffee or evening gatherings. A highly desirable main-level guest suite with a full bath and walk-in shower offers ideal accommodations for visitors, multigenerational living, or a private home office. Rich hardwood flooring spans the main living areas, while soaring 9-foot ceilings create an open, airy feel throughout.
Upstairs, you'll find 9' ceilings and an expansive loft that serves beautifully as a second family room, media space, or home office. Hardwood floors continue through the loft, landing, hallway, owner's suite, and adjoining flex room. Three additional bedrooms provide generous space and natural light, including one with a walk-in closet, while the hall bath features dual vanities and a tub/shower combination.
A separate laundry room (sale includes the washer and dryer) for added convenience. The luxurious owner's retreat is truly exceptional, offering plenty of room for a sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with double vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower, and private water closet. Connected to the suite is a versatile bonus room complete with custom built-in desk and cabinetry-perfect as a home office, fitness room, hobby space, nursery, dressing room, or dream walk-in closet.
Imagine relaxing on your front porch while enjoying Ball Ground's seasonal fireworks and the welcoming atmosphere of one of North Georgia's most charming small towns.

This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Actual list price: $734,900 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 27% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
- Outliers skew it — one flip or distressed sale in the comps drags the whole $/sq ft up or down.
- Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- 279 active listings competing, 57 under contract
For reference, this home is listed at $734,900 ($269/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Frequently asked questions
Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?
Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Where does the flood-zone information come from?
A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
