South Lake Lanier living at its best!

Every detail of this ranch-style lake home has been thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt. The renovation includes all-new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, sheetrock, trim and finishes, along with a new roof featuring 30-year architectural shingles and new trim. A new driveway, professional landscaping and a full irrigation system complete the exterior transformation.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular designer kitchen by Chris Housley, featuring custom built-in cabinetry, a 15' waterfall quartz island, and an exceptional appliance package. The kitchen is equipped with luxury Viking, CornuFé, Miele and Scotsman appliances, including 30" built-in refrigerator and 30" freezer, a CornuFé dual-fuel 5-burner range, Miele built-in coffee system and wall oven, Scotsman nugget ice maker, beverage center, dishwasher, 30" induction cooktop and a statement CornuFé range hood.
