Tucked behind a canopy of mature hardwoods in one of Gainesville's most established neighborhoods, 2033 Riverwood Drive is a rare opportunity to own a home that feels like a private retreat without sacrificing proximity to the city. Draped in signature sage-green board-and-batten siding with cedar-toned shutters and carriage-style garage doors,… Read More the curb appeal alone sets this property apart - but the real story unfolds inside. The heart of the home is a showstopping great room defined by soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace that commands the space with effortless warmth. Clerestory windows flood the room with natural light, while French doors open directly to the rear patio - seamlessly blending indoor comfort with outdoor living. Whether you're entertaining a crowd or settling in for a quiet evening by the fire, this room delivers. The chef's kitchen is equally impressive. Rich raised-panel cabinetry, a center island with cooktop and professional-grade overhead hood, stainless steel appliances, and a custom tile backsplash with hand-painted diamond accents create a space that is both functional and full of character. A built-in wine rack and abundant storage make this a kitchen that serious cooks will appreciate. Adjacent to the kitchen, a charming curved bay breakfast nook wraps you in natural light and garden views - the ideal morning spot. The primary suite is a true sanctuary. Spacious and serene, it opens through French doors into a spa-caliber bath featuring a freestanding clawfoot soaking tub, dual vanity with white cabinetry and stone countertops, a bidet, and an oversized glass-enclosed travertine shower with a built-in bench and dual showerheads - a retreat within a retreat. Vaulted ceilings and recessed lighting complete the luxurious feel. Additional living spaces are as thoughtfully designed as they are diverse. A formal sitting room with crown molding and sweeping tree-framed windows, a wainscoted flex room with French doors to the patio, multiple well-proportioned secondary bedrooms with ceiling fans and lush garden views, a dedicated home office with built-in workspace and abundant storage - this home is designed for the way people actually live. No fewer than four distinctively finished bathrooms serve the home, including a dramatic black-and-white marble powder room with a sleek black console sink that could have been pulled from a boutique hotel. Outside, the private concrete patio is ready for al fresco entertaining, complete with a built-in gas grill station and room for dining and lounging surrounded by layered landscape beds and mature greenery. The detached carport/workshop is a hobbyist's dream - large enough for a boat, tractor, and equipment with room to spare. Multiple exterior storage cabinets built directly into the home's exterior keep every tool and seasonal item in its place. An unfinished basement adds yet another dimension of flexibility for workshop space, storage, or future expansion. Step out onto the expansive front deck and you'll immediately understand what makes this address truly special. Framed by a cathedral of mature hardwoods, the deck offers serene views of Lake Lanier. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee as mist rises off the water or unwinding at dusk while the lake catches the last light of the day, this outdoor space is more than a feature - it's a daily reminder of why you chose to live here. A two-car garage with handsome carriage-style doors rounds out this exceptionally well-appointed property. If you've been searching for a home with true character, privacy, and the space to live fully - your search ends here. Read Less
