Property Description

This home has the feel of both a mountain cabin and an elegant lake retreat. With a major addition in 2020, including the lake facing extraordinary primary suite, loft, gourmet kitchen, laundry room, garage, basement, and oversized screened porch, it is the culmination of several years of thoughtful planning and meticulous design to blend the beauty of the natural world that this home is surrounded by, into indoor living space. Every room was created to be aesthetically warm, welcoming, and spacious. Lighting, color, and choice of building material played a significant role. From custom cabinetry, outlet placement, closet designs, a one of a kind mudroom, ADA accessibility, and reverse osmosis water filters, functionality was key. At the heart of the home, the kitchen serves as a central gathering place, yet this very special property offers multiple private environments for creativity, work, and reflection. The expansive decks and porches have hosted countless gatherings, offering an effortless flow for entertaining. An additional 2330 square feet daylight basement with french doors facing the lake, plumbed, framed, with high end HVACs and tankless water heater, is ready for your imagination. The property is on a point, with 552 feet of lake frontage and bordered by CORPS land on two sides, one with a creek. The enchanting cove is peaceful, quiet, and relaxing. The dock is always in deep water and has electricity at the dock as well as an easy walk to the dock. Stand up paddling, kayaking, boating, swimming, treks, and relaxing with delightful and caring neighbors and family is what the sellers have experienced while in their home. Evenings are extraordinary. Moonlight pours through skylights, and the shifting seasons unfold through walls of windows. At sunset, the lake casts shimmering reflections across the interior of this gorgeous and unique home. The fenced garden has irrigation and the grounds have been transformed into a certified native habitat sanctuary, recognized by Birds Georgia and the National Wildlife Federation, making for minimal maintenance and maximum enjoyment. Although you are located 10 minutes from a new Publix, and have easy access to Dawsonville and 400, Gainesville and I 985, Dahlonega and the North Georgia mountains, you will come home and feel like you are a million miles away from it all. Please treat yourself and take a tour of one of Lake Lanier's most special homes.
