***Not sure what to do in today’s economy? Don’t put your home search on hold waiting for rates to drop. This seller understands the times and is stepping up to help, offering a choice between $15,000 toward closing costs OR, when you work with our Preferred Lender, a temporary rate buy-down for 12–24 months. This valuable incentive can help reduce your monthly payments, making your dream home not just attainable but more affordable from the start.**** Opportunities like this don’t come along often—especially with a property as special as this one, located just minutes from the sparkling shores of Lake Lanier. This elegant former model home is perfectly situated on a private, wooded lot, giving you the sense of retreat and tranquility while still being conveniently close to shopping, dining, and entertainment. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the timeless curb appeal, beginning with a welcoming rocking-chair front porch where you can relax and take in the peaceful surroundings. Step inside and the thoughtful design becomes immediately clear. To the right, a formal dining room with a sophisticated coffered ceiling sets the stage for holidays and special gatherings, while to the left, a versatile space enclosed with double French doors can be used as a home office, library, or music room—adaptable to whatever fits your lifestyle best. Straight ahead, the sun-drenched great room makes a lasting impression with its warm stained coffered ceiling, elegant fireplace, and seamless flow into the heart of the home: a chef’s kitchen designed for both beauty and functionality. Featuring quartz countertops, a large center island, walk-in pantry, and a bright breakfast or keeping room complete with its own fireplace, this space is ideal for everyday living as well as entertaining. Just beyond, the extended deck provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining or quiet afternoons surrounded by nature. For year-round enjoyment, the spacious screened porch with its cozy outdoor fireplace becomes an extension of the living space—whether you’re sipping morning coffee, unwinding with a glass of wine in the evening, or enjoying a family movie night under the stars. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite offers a true sanctuary. A spa-inspired bath with dual vanities invites relaxation, while the custom walk-in closet with elegant built-in shelving elevates organization and design. A second walk-in closet ensures ample storage and convenience. Three additional bedrooms, each with their own ensuite bath and generous closet space, provide comfort and privacy for family and guests. A flexible bonus room on the upper level offers endless possibilities, whether you envision it as a media room, playroom, or even a second office. The unfinished terrace level expands the home’s potential even further, offering abundant storage or the chance to create additional living space tailored to your needs. Beyond the home itself, thoughtful upgrades add peace of mind and convenience, including plantation shutters on the upper level, a whole-house generator installed in 2024, and reliable fiber internet for seamless remote work or streaming. The location is hard to beat—just 2 miles from GA-400 (Exit 16, Pilgrim Mill Rd), the home offers easy access to all the amenities of lake living with community dock access, as well as shopping, dining, entertainment, and the North Georgia Premium Outlets only a short drive away. This home is more than just a place to live—it’s a retreat where modern comfort, timeless design, and thoughtful details come together. With the added advantage of generous seller incentives, it’s a unique opportunity to secure a property that balances elegance, practicality, and lifestyle. Don’t wait—this could be the perfect moment to step into the home you’ve been dreaming of.
