A stately brick residence on a nearly three-quarter-acre parcel in Brentwood Hills, 1970 Sturbridge Lane is a solid example of classic construction updated for modern life. Listed at $420,000 (MLS 10768318), this 2,458 square foot home in Gwinnett County offers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and one half bath, an unfinished lower level with inside stairs for future expansion, and an outdoor living plan built for privacy and entertaining. With no HOA and annual taxes of $1,161, the property combines convenience with room to grow.
The main level is practical and comfortable, finished with durable luxury vinyl plank that stands up to daily use. A large family room centers on a fireplace and creates a natural gathering point that flows visually to an eat-in kitchen, making morning routines and casual dinners effortless. A main-floor half bath helps keep guests comfortable without intruding on private spaces.
All three bedrooms are located on the upper level, organized to maximize peace and privacy. The owner's suite features an updated en suite bathroom, while two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath. Thoughtful placement of rooms and natural light contribute to a calm, residential feel that suits families or buyers looking for long-term livability in Buford.
Below the main living area, an unfinished basement offers substantial storage today and clear potential for conversion into a recreation room, home office, or additional living quarters. Inside stairs provide convenient access to the main floor, simplifying any future finishing plans. The attached garage includes extra built-in storage for seasonal gear and tools.
Outdoor amenities set this property apart. A screened porch opens to custom-built, multi-level decks that step down into a private yard framed by mature trees. These spaces are ideal for grilling, hosting friends, or finding a quiet corner to read. The lot size of 0.72 acres is unusually large for the area and creates a sense of seclusion while remaining close to shopping and services.
Major system upgrades give buyers added confidence. Recent improvements include a newer roof, an updated HVAC system, a newer water heater, and all-new windows and exterior doors, reducing immediate maintenance concerns and improving energy performance. The current owner has occupied the home for more than 23 years, reflecting steady care and long-term stewardship.
Location is a strong selling point. The home sits minutes from the Mall of Georgia, with quick access to Hwy 85 and Hwy 985, plus nearby parks, dining, and retail. Families will appreciate local schools: Seckinger High School, Glenn C Jones Middle School, and Harmony Elementary. Gwinnett County amenities and commuter routes make this Brentwood Hills property a smart choice for homeowners seeking suburban convenience.
This property offers a blend of classic brick curb appeal, meaningful updates, and ready-made outdoor living on a large private lot. For more information, private showings, or to discuss potential improvements, contact Rebekah Haynes at 678-512-9060 or visit
