Go ask your agent how many four-bedroom homes in West Forsyth have the elementary school around the corner, a roof replaced within the last five years and a price under $600,000. The list gets short fast, and 1530 Dawn Valley Trail is on it. A brick front and covered entry open into a two-story foyer. Dark hardwood floors run through the main level under fresh neutral paint. The formal dining room has wainscoting for Sunday dinners and holiday tables, and a flex room across the hall works as an office or playroom. The family room centers on a fireplace with a white mantel and opens to the kitchen. There you'll find white cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island and a sunny breakfast area with French doors to the patio. Upstairs, plush carpet runs through four bedrooms. The primary suite has a trey ceiling, a walk-in closet and a private bath with a double vanity, garden tub and separate shower. Out back, a deep, level lawn edged with mature trees leaves room for a swing set, a garden or a game of catch. A two-car garage and a main-level half bath handle the practical side. Thorngate offers a pool, clubhouse, tennis and basketball courts, a playground and a park. Kelly Mill Elementary is 0.2 miles away, Forsyth Central High is under two miles, and downtown Cumming and GA-400 are minutes away. At $575,000, this home puts you in one of Forsyth's strongest school zones, ready the day you close.
