Rare opportunity to own a custom-built home on a spacious 1.3 acre lot with no HOA in the highly desirable Deer Creek Shores area on Lake Lanier’s Shady Grove Peninsula. Built in 2019 with high-end craftsmanship and thoughtful design, this property offers the perfect blend of luxury, flexibility, and usable space in one of North Forsyth’s most sought-after settings. With 6 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath, this home is designed for both everyday comfort and large-scale entertaining. The main level features an open-concept layout filled with natural light, luxury vinyl flooring throughout, and a chef’s kitchen anchored by a large granite island, high-end stainless appliances, and seamless flow into the spacious living and dining areas. The screened-in back porch overlooks a peaceful, private yard and opens to a fire pit area, creating the ideal setting for relaxing evenings or gathering with family and friends. The fully finished terrace level lives like a second home and is perfect for multigenerational living or extended guests, featuring a full kitchen, laundry, living room, two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and dedicated office area. With a layout ready for a second driveway and parking pad, the lower level offers true flexibility and independent access for long-term guests, family, or work-from-home needs. Outside, the 1.3 acre lot provides rare usable space with room to expand, build a detached garage, workshop, or additional structures. The 3-car garage adds even more functionality, and the quiet street offers a peaceful retreat while still being just minutes to GA400, shopping, schools, parks, and nearby Lake Lanier boat ramps, beaches, and fishing. Located in the new East Forsyth High School district, this home combines custom construction, modern finishes, open space, and unbeatable location. Properties offering this much living space, land, and versatility at this price point are extremely hard to find.
