About this home

What if you never had to leave home to feel like you were on vacation? This incredible Chestatee estate brings together everything we love about living on Lake Lanier: space to gather, room for everyone, incredible lake views, resort-style amenities, and a lifestyle that makes everyday life feel a little more like a getaway. With more than 15,000 square feet and an elevator servicing every level, this home was designed with entertaining and multigenerational living in mind. And the best part? Every floor has a purpose. The main level is bright and inviting, with four bedrooms, flexible living spaces, and a showstopping kitchen featuring a massive leathered dolomite island, professional-grade appliances, and an easy flow into the great room overlooking the lake. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like its own retreat, complete with two fireplaces, a spa-inspired bath with heated floors, and beautiful water views. The terrace level takes entertaining to another level with a theater, gym, bar, regulation bowling alley, flex space, and a spa retreat ready for your finishing touches. Outside, the fun continues! A 40-foot heated PebbleTec pool with a grotto, waterfall, rock slide, and hot tub sits between the main home and a versatile 3,000+ square foot pool house. The pool house offers additional bedrooms, living space, lake views, pool access, and the opportunity to create even more with a terrace level already stubbed for a second kitchen. And then there’s the Chestatee lifestyle. Your private, deeded boat slip is just steps away, while the community offers golf, a marina, swimming, tennis, pickleball, and clubhouse amenities. Spend the morning on the lake, the afternoon on the golf course, and the evening watching the sunset from home. When you want to venture out, Dahlonega’s wineries, waterfalls, hiking, and mountain charm are nearby, with Atlanta still within easy reach. Whether you envision a family compound, a multigenerational home, an entertainer’s dream, or simply a place where you can enjoy Lake Lanier to the fullest, this is a property with the space, flexibility, and lifestyle to make it your own! A full list of special features and upgrades are available.
