A stone’s throw from the water’s edge, this lakefront cottage is renovated, refreshed, and ready for your summer retreat. Set along the shores of Lake Lanier with breathtaking, year-round, big-water views. This home offers a flat, easy path to deep water and a 32'x32' double-slip dock with party deck, power and water — designed for sunset cruises, slow mornings with coffee, and full days on the lake. Located at the end of a quiet road just before Corps property, the setting provides panoramic water vistas and added privacy. Inside, vaulted beamed ceilings and heated tile floors create warmth and character throughout. Abundant windows fill the home with natural light and keep the lake front-and-center. The open kitchen offers prep and counter space, ample cabinetry, and an easy flow to the living areas for effortless entertaining. Two bedrooms and a full bath are on the main level, while the upper level is dedicated to a private primary suite with a beautifully updated bath. Enjoy evenings at the lakeside firepit, perfect for roasting marshmallows and making memories. The generous property lines and no HOA provide room for potential expansion. Convenient to Chattahoochee Golf & Country Club and just minutes to grocery stores and downtown Gainesville dining and shopping. Talk about easy-breezy lake living!
