Property Description

They call it The Treehouse, and once you spend a little time here, it makes perfect sense. Set above a quiet stretch of Lake Lanier on the Chestatee River tributary, this home brings together privacy, scale, and easy water access in a way that's tough to replicate. The water stays deep at the dock year-round, and when the lake drops, a natural white sand beach appears. The 32'x32' double-slip dock is already outfitted with power, water, and a party deck; and the low-traffic water makes it ideal for swimming, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding-or doing absolutely nothing at all. And then there's the part most lake homes get wrong: access. Here, it's a true zero-stair-step walk from the house to the lake, with a cart path the entire way. No stairs to fight with, no second-guessing whether it's worth the trip-just effortless lake living. Inside, the home has been fully updated while keeping its character intact. Real face-nailed solid heart pine floors paired with pine vaulted ceilings and a layout that's built for both everyday living and larger gatherings. The main level flows naturally, and the staircases are intentionally positioned off to the side of the home, out of view from the front door, giving a cleaner, more open first impression. There's room to spread out in all the right ways: two kitchens, multiple living areas, and a theater that comfortably handles 30-40 guests. The second level functions as a home of its own-with its own kitchen, living space, deck, and separation-making it ideal for multigenerational living or long-term guests. The primary suite is absolutely huge with 15' pine ceilings and a spa-style bath, and throughout the home you'll find thoughtful touches that make it as comfortable as it is impressive. The wet bar-with sink and refrigerator-was designed to actually be used, not just admired, and anchors the home's entertaining spaces with both style and function. Out back is where the nickname really comes to life. Roughly 2,300 square feet of outdoor living space includes a rear deck perched about 35 feet above the ground, putting you right in the tree canopy. It's the kind of place where you'll catch yourself lingering-watching birds move through the branches, listening to the water, and on clear days, even catching distant views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. If a 7300 square feet finished interior is still not big enough, there's another 3000 square feet with 10' ceilings ready for sheetrock and whatever your imagination allows. Professionally landscaped and thoughtfully positioned, the Treehouse feels tucked away without being disconnected. This is a home that doesn't just offer space-it changes how you live in it.
