This exceptional lakefront estate on nearly an acre offers expansive open-water views and a double-slip dock on Lake Lanier. Thoughtfully designed with both function and elegance in mind, the home features main-level living complemented by a fully finished terrace level. Fine architectural details-such as extensive molding, elevated ceilings, and rich stained wood accents-create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. The chef’s kitchen is anchored by a gas range and custom hood, surrounded by generous counter space, a large island, and abundant cabinetry. Open to the keeping room, the layout is ideal for entertaining, centered around a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The main living space frames stunning lake views through picture windows and extends seamlessly to the outdoors, where a vaulted, tongue-and-groove ceiling adds character to the covered back deck. The primary suite on the main level offers a tranquil retreat, complete with a vaulted ceiling, a sitting area set over a bay window, and sweeping views that make you feel as though you’re floating above the water. The spa-like en-suite includes a tiled shower, soaking tub, and spacious walk-in closet. Two additional main-level bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom-perfect for guests or a home office, with one bedroom featuring built-ins. The finished terrace level is light-filled and highly functional, with a full kitchenette, expansive living and dining areas, and a media or billiards room. Two more bedrooms with en-suite baths and a versatile flex space complete this level. Lake living is front and center, with easy access to the double-slip dock featuring a party deck and jet ski ports. This property offers deep water, minimal maintenance, and proximity to local favorites such as Gainesville Marina, Port Royale, and Pelican Pete’s-making it a true lakeside retreat with both luxury and Lake lifestyle in mind.
