EASY Lake and Dock access!!! No stairs, steps or rough terrain, just plenty of grass for an easy short walk to the lake. This home is for the outdoor lovers, featuring an expansive wrap-around screened porch with park-like views and evening sunsets. The open concept living area features high ceilings and a cozy stone fireplace. Main level bedroom conveniently opens up to the screened porch. Upstairs loft boasts 2 additional bedrooms with wonderful natural light and connected full bath. The exterior is thoughtfully landscaped with a flat concrete parking pad that has the potential to be covered and makes excellent boat or RV parking. The Core of Engineers permits mowing all the way to the lake, so grab your lake toys from the ample, under-deck storage and take a stroll to your platform dock. NO HOA! In the heart of Cumming adjacent to Mary Alice Park Marina on the desirable south end of Lake Lanier. This is a great retirement home, perfect weekend getaway or successful AirBnB!
