Agent Description

Price improvement! EASY (and I mean easy) Lake and Dock access!!! No stairs, steps or rough terrain, just plenty of grass for a short enjoyable stroll to the lake. Enjoy the rarity of the year round park-like views and evening sunsets from the expansive wrap-around screened porch.

The serenity is unmatched! Step inside to the open concept living area featuring high ceilings and an oversized stone fireplace. The french doors in the main level bedroom open up to the screened porch for that fresh North Georgia air. Upstairs loft boasts 2 additional bedrooms with wonderful natural light and connected full bath.

The exterior is thoughtfully landscaped with a flat concrete parking pad that has the potential to be covered and makes excellent boat or RV parking. The Core of Engineers permits mowing all the way to the lake, so grab your cooler and lake toys from the ample, under-deck storage and head down to the Deep-Water Cove for endless days of fun and relaxation.

This home is situated in the true Heart of Cumming, off a main channel, on the very desirable south end of Lake Lanier. Nearby shopping and entertainment are accessible both by Wheels AND by WATER. This is a great retirement home, perfect weekend getaway or successful rental with low maintenance and no HOA.
