Welcome to your own private Lake Lanier retreat! Situated on approximately 1.9± acres on the south end of Lake Lanier, this custom built lake home offers plenty of space, privacy, and everything you need to enjoy lake living. The property features a 32' x 32' double-slip dock with Trex decking and a party deck, along with expansive, long range lake views. The dock sits in a sheltered bay, helping protect it from rough water and heavy lake traffic while still offering deep water access. One of the property's most unique features is the permitted paved asphalt path leading from the home all the way to the dock. Inside, you'll find an open and flowing floor plan with abundant natural light. Large windows bring in the surrounding lake views, while exposed wood beams and vaulted tongue and groove ceilings give the home plenty of warmth and character. The spacious living room features a large masonry fireplace and opens directly to the kitchen and dining area, making it a great space for gathering and entertaining. The kitchen offers double ovens, a cooktop, plenty of cabinetry, a spacious walk-in pantry, and easy access to the main-level laundry and mudroom. One of the best spots in the home is the large sunroom overlooking the lake, with soaring windows, exposed wood beams, and tons of natural light. It's the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sunrise over Lake Lanier. The main level owner's suite features a spacious bath with double vanities, a separate soaking tub and shower, and his and hers closets. Two additional bedrooms on the main level offer spacious closets and share a full bath. Upstairs, you'll find two versatile rooms originally used as offices but could easily serve as guest rooms, additional sleeping quarters, or flex spaces to fit your needs. A spacious open loft with skylights, built-in bookshelves, and additional storage completes the upper level. The finished lower level gives you even more room to spread out, with a large gathering room and bar, two bedrooms, a full bath, workshop area, and access to a screened porch. There's also a rear deck off the main level that's perfect for relaxing, grilling, and enjoying the peaceful lake setting. Outside, the wooded 1.9± acre lot offers plenty of privacy, with deer, ducks, squirrels, and other wildlife as frequent visitors. A basketball court has been converted into a private park-like recreation area with artificial turf, creating a great space for outdoor activities, entertaining, or even a putting green. Enjoy lake frontage, deep-water access, a double-slip dock, party deck, and beautiful long-range views across the water. Shady Grove Park is just next door, giving you a great place to walk, explore, and enjoy nature. With Shadburn Ferry Road dead-ending into the park, you'll also enjoy a peaceful setting with very little through traffic. Great location with convenient access to GA-400, shopping, dining, and Downtown Cumming, while still offering the privacy and peaceful setting of a lake retreat. Whether you're watching the sunrise from the sunroom, entertaining on the dock, relaxing by the fireplace, or spending the day on the water, 7565 Shadburn Ferry Road is truly a one-of-a-kind lake home and a wonderful place to enjoy the Lake Lanier lifestyle.
