About This Home
Experience refined lake living on this private and beautifully landscaped 1.5-acre estate, perfectly positioned along one of Lake Lanier's most desirable shoreline corridors. Thoughtfully updated and designed for both everyday comfort and elevated entertaining, this exceptional residence blends modern luxury with the peaceful retreat-like setting that lake buyers seek. Inside, the home features an expansive open layout filled with natural light, soaring ceilings, and seamless flow between the main living areas. A spacious fireside family room anchors the heart of the home, framed by large windows that overlook the wooded lake backdrop. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with premium appliances, generous prep space, and an inviting layout ideal for hosting gatherings, holidays, or casual everyday meals. A formal dining room, multiple lounge spaces, and direct access to outdoor living areas create a lifestyle centered on connection and comfort. The main-level owner's suite offers a serene private retreat with a spa-inspired bath, walk-in dressing area, and convenient access to the pool terrace. Additional guest suites and flexible bonus rooms allow the home to adapt effortlessly for multigenerational living, working from home, or accommodating extended-stay guests. Outdoors, the property transforms into a private resort. Enjoy a sparkling heated pool, sun shelf, and multiple terraces designed for lounging and dining. The outdoor grilling kitchen and covered entertainment zones create the perfect environment for hosting weekend gatherings or relaxing in total seclusion. With its rare gentle topography, the usable yard space sets this property apart-ideal for outdoor games, additional landscaping, or future enhancements. A standout feature of this home is the COE-deeded mowing permit, allowing owners to maintain clear lake-facing views and enjoy the unique privilege of golf-cart access to the shoreline-an amenity almost never available at this price point. This direct connection to the water enhances both lifestyle and long-term value.
