Welcome to your dream gentleman's ranch on the serene shores of the Northern End of Lake Lanier! An exceptional 40-acre property offering unparalleled privacy and endless possibilities, making it a truly unique find. This property includes Hall County-approved plans for a 14-lot vacation cottage subdivision, presenting a remarkable investment opportunity. The centerpiece of the estate is a stunning cabin, meticulously renovated in 2023. Step inside to discover an inviting and airy interior with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. The warm wood-paneled walls and ceilings complement the sleek, modern furnishings, creating a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere. Upon entering the property, you'll find a beautifully renovated barn, equipped with power and water, making it ready for both livestock and chickens. The barn is enclosed in a ~3 acre fenced fescue pasture, offering ample space for horses or other animals. Adjacent to the fenced pasture is an additional 2.66 acre unfenced fescue pasture. Just on the other side of the fence and toward the lake is a naturally fed spring head! For those who love the outdoors, this property boasts a dedicated campsite with three tent pads and both water and power, perfect for family gatherings or weekend getaways under the stars. Explore the property on a hiking trail that winds throughout, offering stunning views of the mountains of North Georgia. The hiking trail is wide enough for full sized vehicles and side by sides. Additionally, a private shooting range away from the cabin and waterfront and abundant wildlife make this ranch a hunter's paradise. On the water, enjoy the brand new Martin Dock measuring 36'x26' with an 80' walkway that has been grandfathered in. The dock sits on 900' of pristine shoreline with 196' of rip rap and features two boat slips, an 8,000lb Hydro-Hoist lift, as well as ample seating and entertaining areas, making it perfect for enjoying long lake days with friends and family. A detached garage provides convenient storage for vehicles, boats, or recreational equipment, ensuring you have everything you need for lakeside living. Next to the garage is a 100' tall tower with business grade Starlink dish for high speed internet. Current internet is 300mb fiber from Spectrum for all of your streaming and work from home needs. Water on the property is provided by a newly overhauled well system. Yard hydrants are located at the steps to the dock, next to the garage, 3 in the pasture, and 1 at the camp site. Conveniently located just 6 miles from the North Georgia Premium Outlets, 30 miles from Alpharetta, and 67 miles from Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport via GA-400, and only 13 miles from downtown Gainesville, this property allows you to enjoy the peaceful seclusion of your own private wilderness while still being close to essential amenities. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a working ranch, or an investment opportunity, this gentleman's ranch on the Northern End of Lake Lanier has it all! Develop immediately, hold for future potential, or create a private retreat with family and friends, the possibilities are almost limitless!
