Charming south Lake Lanier cottage with gorgeous year-round water views and a deep water dock! Imagine days spent on the lake and docking the boat at your own paradise- a cozy 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with landscaped yard, ample outdoor living spaces and beautiful sunsets. The property is a gardener's sanctuary with lovely plantings, stone patios and retaining walls, garden shed and rainwater cistern for irrigation. The home has an open concept living and kitchen area with gas log fireplace, dining room and great water views! Glass doors lead to the deck featuring composite flooring and cable railing. The main level has two secondary bedrooms and a full bath. The entire lower level is the primary suite designed to spoil. Wake up to amazing views from the bedroom, relax in the sitting area by the fireplace and enjoy the screened porch with hot tub. An updated bathroom with tile shower, separate closets and the laundry complete the space. The 940 sq ft detached garage is temperature controlled, features parking for 4 cars and a workshop area for the family handyman. It's an easy stroll to the grandfathered single slip boathouse with lift and attached platform dock. Equipped with OttoDock it can easily be adjusted with the phone app whenever lake levels change. The location is the icing on the cake! The neighborhood is great for walking and close to the quaint downtown areas of Buford and Flowery Branch with easy access to I-985. By lake you're minutes to waterfront restaurants, marinas and Margaritaville. This retreat is all about enjoying LAKE LIFE and will appeal to those who realize the value of an excellent lot and location on Lake Lanier. Well-maintained house with 3 year old roof, cement board siding and mostly newer windows.
