Property Description
Rare opportunity to own one of Lake Lanier's most impressive estate properties, where nearly every room frames an unobstructed view of the water. Set on a beautifully landscaped lot with a tiered yard leading directly to the lake, this 7,800 square foot home offers the full lake lifestyle at a scale that is hard to match. A stained and stamped driveway sets the tone from the moment you arrive. The main level primary suite is a true retreat, with lake views, direct access to the back deck, a marble bath with double-head shower and oversized jacuzzi tub, and a walk-in closet that will not disappoint. Real hardwood floors run throughout the main level, anchored by an oversized stacked stone fireplace in the main living area. The kitchen features custom cabinetry with pullout drawers, a wet bar, and color-adjustable LED lighting that carries into the living area for fully customizable ambiance. A dedicated home office, separate dining room, large laundry room with toilet, sink, and laundry chute, and a sprawling back deck with both covered and open sections spanning the full width of the home round out the main level. Custom wrought iron railings and staircases make navigating the tiered lot to the lake both safe and striking. Outside, mature landscaping terraces down to a custom-built dock on deep water, with hydro boat lift, jet ski platform, and upper and lower decks built for entertaining. A large Michael Phelps edition hot tub, outdoor storage shed, and room for a future pool complete the picture. The finished terrace level delivers a full gym with sauna, a painted brick fireplace, a large bar, and a game room with pool table, shuffleboard, and air hockey. A dedicated home theater with projector and A/V closet, two full baths, and a utility room with dual tankless water heaters round out the lower level. Four bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths. The two-and-a-half-car garage adds everyday practicality to an otherwise exceptional property. Opportunities like this do not come along often on Lake Lanier.
