About This Home
Set along the open waters of Lake Lanier, this gated lakeside estate offers sweeping panoramic views, deep water, and a private double-slip dock — delivering an exceptional lake lifestyle rarely available at this level. Perfectly positioned on approximately 0.72 acres, the home enjoys unobstructed sightlines across the main channel, with breathtaking water views from every level. Expansive windows and multiple balconies frame the lake from nearly every room, creating a seamless connection between indoor living and the outdoors. The main level is designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, featuring a chef’s kitchen with commercial-grade stainless steel appliances that flows into the keeping room and dining area — all anchored by captivating lake views. The family room opens to a lakeside balcony, ideal for morning coffee or evening gatherings. A substantial mudroom with dual washers and dryers, sink, and rear staircase adds functionality, while two generously sized guest suites — including a secondary primary — complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat with French doors, panoramic lake views, and a spa-inspired en suite featuring double vanities, whirlpool tub, expansive tiled shower, and a custom walk-in closet with an additional washer and dryer. An additional en suite bedroom completes the upper level. The terrace level offers exceptional flexibility as an entertainer’s haven or in-law suite, featuring a full kitchen, bar, and living area, along with three guest bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a spacious bunk or media room. This space could also be converted back to a two-car garage with abundant storage, if desired. Outdoors, enjoy year-round swimming in the heated pool, or take an easy stroll to the private, deep-water, double-slip dock for effortless boating and lake access. Ideally located just off Dawsonville Highway, the property offers convenient access to dining, shopping, and everyday amenities while maintaining a sense of privacy and retreat. A rare Lake Lanier offering — open water, panoramic views, and a double-slip dock in deep water, creating a truly exceptional lakeside estate.
