Lakeside living is a dream for many people in the Atlanta area, and we are fortunate to have several beautiful lakes that allow us to fulfill the dream of waterfront living. The luxurious home for sale at 5973 Blackberry Lane overlooks a peaceful, no wake zone cove on the southern end of Lake Lanier. A nature path leads down to the private dock.
Situated on 1.49+/- acres, this custom residence was designed with entertaining in mind. As soon as you walk through the handcrafted iron double entry doors, you experience the ingenious flow of the entire house, all leading to expansive views of the lake beyond. Running throughout the first level is exquisite pine flooring which is complemented above with 10’ ceilings, fine molding, arched transom windows in some rooms and coffered ceilings in others.
The most substantial room in the house is the combination of the gourmet kitchen, breakfast/fireside keeping room, and connection to the family room. This expansive space can host intimate gatherings of four people all the way up to 100+ for a larger event. It is outfitted for a chef with Viking appliances including a four-burner stove, a double oven and a warming drawer. A microwave is neatly tucked away and the open butler’s pantry features a mini-fridge, wine cooler and glass front cabinets. There is a large central island with elevated bar seating, stylish lighting fixtures, earth tone backsplash, and plenty of storage and prep space.
French doors in the main room open out onto a covered outdoor living area with gorgeous textures to create a homey feeling. Highlights include a handsome stone fireplace, cedar shake siding, bead board ceiling, ceiling fans, craftsman style railings, and archways revealing grand views overlooking Lake Lanier. It is simply gorgeous here all year round, especially in the fall.
The spacious master retreat is on the main level and it is sure to please even those with the highest expectations. Wainscoting, crown molding, a glamorous chandelier, a wall of windows and access to the outdoor living room all contribute to the exclusive feeling found in this space. The luxurious spa-like master bathroom is equally grand and includes a double granite vanity, deep soaking tube and separate frameless shower. One feature you will come to adore is the heated tile floor in the master bath!
The party will continue – and maybe even get better – in the daylight finished terrace level with 12’ ceilings. Memory-making options here include a full living room with a kitchen, bar, separate game room, hot tub and access to the backyard. There are also two private bedrooms with full bathroom, as well as a half bathroom for guests on this level.
This home is ready to invite new owners and their many guests for memorable gatherings. It has exceptional flow for entertaining, has plenty of guest parking and is only a few minutes away from downtown Buford and Flowery Branch.
Living on the lake is wonderful, and the surrounding community is superb! Lake Lanier Islands is only two miles away, the cul-de-sac lot has little if any street traffic, and the cove is very peaceful as well. A room above the garage is finished as an office – which might mean you never have to leave this perfect place.
