Life near Lake Lanier is about making the most of your free time. Spend the day on the water, grab dinner at one of Gainesville's lakeside restaurants, visit nearby wineries, or simply come home and unwind in your own private backyard retreat. This home doesn't just offer more space—it offers a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly difficult to find.
With approximately $150,000 in thoughtfully designed improvements, this property delivers a level of customization that's exceptionally rare in today's market. Rather than settling for a standard home, you'll enjoy features that would cost significantly more to recreate, including a luxury in-law suite, hidden speakeasy, private orchard, and beautifully designed outdoor living spaces.
The crown jewel is the fully renovated $90,000 TERRACE LEVEL, designed as a true second living space rather than simply a finished basement. Complete with its own FULL KITCHEN, BEDROOM, FULL BATH, OFFICE, LIVING ROOM, SAUNA, GYM WITH SPECIALTY FLOORING, WASHER & DRYER, AND A PRIVATE SCREENED PORCH, it offers incredible flexibility for multi-generational living, extended guests, independent adult children, or unforgettable weekends with friends and family.
Equally unforgettable is the CUSTOM $20,000 SPEAKEASY hidden within the home. Featuring wood flooring and concealed storage, it's the kind of one-of-a-kind space that instantly becomes everyone's favorite gathering place and sets this home apart from anything else on the market.
Custom craftsmanship continues throughout the home. Upstairs, the PRIMARY SUITE has been transformed with a CUSTOM WALK-IN CLOSET featuring built-in cabinetry and dresser, while the renovated spa-inspired bath includes MARBLE COUNTERTOPS, upgraded fixtures, designer mirrors, premium lighting, and upgraded shower glass. Throughout the main level, upgraded lighting, custom pantry shelving, custom shelving in the laundry room, and durable LVP flooring add both style and everyday functionality. The Custom Barn Door Sliding Cabinet In-Law Suite has two matching built-in dressers and custom entertainment cabinet, a custom closet, and an office. Plus it has top of the line appliances. And The Washer/ Dryer combo can be added to the sale!
Outside, the property becomes a destination of its own. Approximately $20,000 was invested to create a PRIVATE BACKYARD OASIS featuring a MINI ORCHARD with APPLE, PEACH, PEAR, AND PLUM TREES, raised garden beds, stone walkways, flowering trees, decorative lighting, and a charming garden shed. Whether you're hosting friends beneath the string lights, harvesting fresh fruit, or enjoying a quiet evening on the screened porch, the outdoor spaces feel like an extension of the home itself. The wild BlackBerry Bushes are ready to pick! The Garden consists of Tomatoes, cucumbers, an assortment of peppers, eggplant, garlic, onion, potatoes, okra, broccoli, green beans, yellow squash, zucchini, peas, Brussels sprouts, nasturtium, strawberries, basil, and pumpkins already sprouting. Two beautifully Mature cherry blossom trees bloom in April and those are located in the back yard and showcase such a view when they bloom.
It's uncommon to find a property that offers the flexibility of a LUXURY IN-LAW SUITE, the personality of a PRIVATE SPEAKEASY, the serenity of a GARDEN RETREAT, and the lifestyle that comes with living just minutes from LAKE LANIER. For buyers who want more than just another house, this is the kind of home that creates unforgettable experiences for years to come.
