$1,925,000

Who wants to live on the south-end of the lake that is about as close to Atlanta as you can get? Have you been searching for 'the perfect' lake home that you would LOVE everytime you walk in the front door and would be proud to entertain family and guests?… Read More This isn't just a home, it is a super-unique, fully renovated sanctuary that blends rustic charm with modern luxury, year round views of the lake and an easy walk to the dock. With over $250,000 in renovations in the past 3 years, the sellers have lovingly updated and maintained the entire home, from top to bottom. From the moment you arrive, you'll be amazed by the beautiful character of the wood shingle exterior and the elegant presence of the metal roof. Once inside, the heart pine flooring, custom built-ins, mantles and trim, designed from reclaimed barnwood, beamed ceilings and 3 cozy fireplaces makes this the perfect home to enjoy all 4 seasons. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with high end appliances and an eat-in area that opens directly onto the deck. There is a charming wet bar/coffee bar with an additional full refrigerator that ensures you will always be ready to entertain, whether you are serving morning brews or evening cocktails. The main level primary suite is like a private oasis, complete with a fireplace, a spa-like bath and huge, custom closet will make you feel like you're in a high-end boutique. This impressive multi-level home has a gorgeous suite on the upper level and an equally impressive suite on the lower level. The lower level flex room is perfect for a bunk room, exercise room or a 2nd home office. Do you work from home? The bright, large office on the main level is the perfect area to get a bit of work done before heading out on the lake, and overlooks the koi pond. The open dining room blends with the great room and makes this a great area for conversation and entertaining. Step outside to the massive deck to enjoy the great outdoors or head down to the newly built screened porch on the lower level. There are so many interesting areas to spend time with a group or get away from it all in a quieter area of the home. The massive, cleared side lot is a highly sought-after bonus, offering a blank canvas for a future 2 car garage, home expansion or simply providing ample parking for a boat, trailer or RV. Stroll down to the lake, with beautiful water and new riprap at the shoreline for erosion control, to your dock with a party deck and boat lift. Take off in your boat to explore the marinas with lakeside dining or having a blast at Margaritaville at Lake Lanier Islands, all just a short boat ride away. This more than just a home, it's an invitation to a life of fun, luxury and serenity on Lake Lanier! Read Less
