A unique Lake Oconee home privately nestled on a large 1.25 acre, level lake lot with pretty trees and excellent water depth. The homeowners contacted Dr. Earl Meeks, physicist and research scientist at Georgia Tech, to help design this energy efficient passive solar home. You'll love how light, bright and energy efficient this home is. From the moment you meander down the driveway you'll see pretty lake views and enjoy the natural surroundings. Greet your family or guests on the huge 40ft long screened porch, perfect for whiling away lazy summer days....step into the large great room with 10ft ceilings and open floor plan. Beautiful skylights let in tons of light or can be adjusted for keeping out the hot summer sun. A large kitchen with loads of cabinets and open dining space means there's always a lake view! The storage is endless in the large laundry room/pantry. The split bedroom plan means privacy for the master bedroom with a lake view and 2 additional bedrooms and bath on the opposite end. A 4th bedroom/office/bunkroom or flex space is available and has direct access to a 3rd bath. Another flex space off the garage is excellent storage or craft room! Tiled throughout for easy maintenance, this home has been a one owner property. The roof is less than a year old, HVAC system is 6-7 yrs, home has been well maintained. Truly unique and beautiful setting.....come take a look, you won't be disappointed...
