About This Home

As of November 2019

Beautiful stone masonry accents this spacious 5 bedroom / 3 full bath home in Lanier High School District.

The extensive loft upstairs adds a bonus area for children or quiet time. The basement is full, with an exterior entry, and just waiting to be finished, if extra space is desired. Minutes away from Lake Lanier, this house offers location, size and features for a great value!
