Perched above the glistening waters of Lake Lanier, this refined $1,650,000

Lake Home For Sale

Perched above the glistening waters of Lake Lanier, this refined ranch with a finished terrace level captures sunrise views that feel almost cinematic. Every space within the home blends sophistication with comfort-tall ceilings, rich hardwood floors, elegant moldings, and timeless architectural details that speak to quiet craftsmanship rather than glitz and glam. The open-concept layout effortlessly flows with intention. The fireplace and hearth made from historic south Georgia bricks, anchors the living room, framed by custom built-ins that invite both display and conversation. The kitchen balances elegance with practicality-granite surfaces, soft-close cabinetry, and dual pantries designed for those who love to cook and entertain with ease. The primary suite on main offers a daily awakening to sweeping lake and sky views. Its spa-inspired bath, wrapped in Carrera marble, includes dual vanities, private water closets, and custom wardrobe built-ins that make everyday life feel beautifully ordered. A second main-level suite provides welcome flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, while the private office-with its bay window and built-ins-offers a serene workspace with a woodland view. On the terrace level, the possibilities expand-a full wet bar, inviting den, two ensuite bedrooms, a home gym, and a versatile bonus room ready to become a creative studio or second office. Outdoors, the home becomes a sanctuary. Mornings unfold on the covered porch with coffee and the first light over the lake; evenings gather around the stone fireplace under the soft glow of twilight. Below, the shaded terrace patio offers a quiet vantage point for watching deer at the tree line or ospreys skimming the water. A covered boat slip at the community dock completes this effortless lake lifestyle-enjoy all the recreation and serenity of Lanier without the maintenance. Spend weekends cruising to local waterfront favorites, or simply savor the stillness of dawn from your own back porch. Moments from downtown Gainesville yet worlds away in peace and privacy, this is Lake Lanier living at its finest-elegant, easy, and endlessly inspiring.
