At 2695 Lee Road 0344, there are no worries. Every square inch of this 7.5± acre estate on Alabama’s Lake Harding has been lovingly designed and cherished. Relocated from its birthplace in Columbus, Georgia and expanded onsite, this tasteful, timeless Southern residence impresses with classical architectural features and unobstructed views of the breathtaking surroundings.
Approached through a hand-crafted wrought iron gate and residing at the end of a long, winding drive, a motor court clad with inlaid brick prefaces this beguiling lakefront home. Enter the inviting foyer, where rich hard pine floors course throughout the home and seamlessly unite each room with an effortless flow. Oversized crown and dentil molding lines the perimeter of the foyer as well as the flanking fireside library and sprawling formal dining room.
Light pours into the central hallway from a transom-topped French door lined with sidelight windows. Features of note include a dazzling sunroom with floor-to-ceiling picture windows and a sunken great room with a coffered ceiling, hidden built-in cabinetry and a bowed window wall with four transom-topped pairs of French doors opening to the magnificent grounds.
The gourmet kitchen impresses with beautiful cherry wood cabinetry punctuated by awning windows rising from the counter to the crown molding. Panel-front appliances give the kitchen an Old World feel, and stone countertops with a hint of emerald green add luxury to the perimeter countertops as well as the center island.
With seven total bedrooms, the spacious and private sleeping quarters provide a welcomed respite from the stresses of the day. A large wine cellar with room for 2,100 bottles provides plenty of storage for budding and seasoned wine connoisseurs alike.
A plethora of balconies, terraces, covered porches and patios pepper the magazine-worthy grounds. A refreshing pool with a large pool deck is the perfect place to soak in the sun when not cruising Lake Harding. The perfectly manicured grounds are vibrant with a profusion of color and florals, and ivy climbs the brick arcade adjacent to the pool as well as the expanses between the garage bays of the four covered boat slips, each with hoists. If you prefer traveling on land, the 12-car garage provides the ideal location to house any car enthusiast’s beloved collection.
Bedecked with too many luxuries to list, Pope’s Point on Lake Harding, a 5,850± acre reservoir known for its clean, clear water and stable water level, has long been the envy of passing boaters who slow down to take in every inch of her splendor. Located approximately an hour from the Hartsfield-Ja26ckson Atlanta International Airport and a half-hour from two jet ports, you will also enjoy proximity to I-85, Columbus, Georgia and Auburn, Alabama and diverse shopping and dining options. You may even spot the Auburn University Rowing team during their early morning weekday practices on the lake. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, acquiring a resort-style home such as Pope’s Point is the dream of many but the attainability of a select few. A luxurious life of leisure awaits.
