5 Bedroom House in Rome
Welcome to Horseleg Forest Retreat, a serene nature escape tucked beside Marshall Forest on one of Rome’s most beautiful streets, Horseleg Creek Road. Located in a friendly, walkable neighborhood just minutes from downtown, this spacious 5 bedroom, 3 ½ bath home offers a rare blend of privacy, comfort, and natural beauty. Enjoy a large, well manicured lawn, relaxing outdoor spaces, inviting gathering areas, and the peaceful feeling of being surrounded by nature while still close to town.
THE SPACE
The home is thoughtfully designed across three levels, offering plenty of room for families and groups to spread out while still enjoying time together.
The main level serves as the central gathering space, offering a welcoming living room, a cozy library or sitting room, and a dining area ideal for shared meals. The spacious kitchen also includes a dining table for casual meals and morning coffee. Highlights include a center island, plenty of counter space, beautiful cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a window overlooking the porch. A laundry area and half bath are conveniently located just off the kitchen.
Just off the main living areas, guests can step onto the screened back porch, a favorite spot to sip coffee in the morning or unwind in the evening while listening to the quiet sounds of the forest. There is also an additional open porch with comfortable seating and a gas grill, making outdoor dining easy and enjoyable.
The upper level provides a comfortable and private retreat. This floor features two spacious king bedrooms and a third bedroom with twin beds, making it ideal for both adults and children. Guests will also find two large bathrooms, including a beautifully appointed ensuite. The ensuite bathroom offers a relaxing soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and double vanity sinks, creating a spa-like space to unwind after a day of exploring.
The lower level functions almost like a second home within the house. This private space includes two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a full kitchen, and a living room, making it ideal for extended family, couples traveling together, or guests who would appreciate extra privacy.
Outside, the property continues to shine. The expansive yard showcases a beautifully manicured lawn, offering plenty of space to relax, play, or enjoy the outdoors. Guests can gather around the outdoor fire pit in the evening, perfect for conversation and stargazing. Deer frequently pass through the area and can often be seen walking through the yard, adding to the peaceful, nature filled setting. A small fenced area is also available for pets to safely enjoy the outdoors.
One of the most unique features of the property is its location directly beside Marshall Forest, a beautiful National Natural Landmark known for its rare old growth forest and scenic walking trails. A trail from the backyard connects directly to the Marshall Forest trail system, allowing guests to easily explore one of Rome’s most special natural areas just steps from the home.
