If you've been dreaming about simplifying life without giving up the things you love, this home makes that transition feel easy.
Built in 2022 in the 55+ community of Stephens Point on Lake Lanier, this is the kind of place that works for you instead of the other way around. Everything you need is on one level, with an open layout that feels bright, relaxed, and easy to move through. Mornings start with sunlight pouring into the main living space. The kitchen stays connected to the conversation, whether you're hosting family for the weekend or just enjoying a quiet evening at home. The primary suite feels tucked away and private, with a sitting room that opens to the screened porcha and a spacious bath and and walk-in closet that connects to your laundry room.
One of the biggest advantages here? Direct access to a 14-slip community dock on Lake Lanier -- and there's no extra fee and no long wait list. You can head down to the dock or the back porch of the clubhouse for a lake sunset, meet neighbors for a boat ride, or simply sit by the water or float or swim by the dock whenever the mood strikes. It's lake living without the cost and upkeep of a private slip.
The unfinished basement gives you options. Maybe you want a workshop, a home gym, extra storage, or space ready for future guests. It's there when you need it. You have a blank space to double your square footage that opens to a covered patio.
Stephens Point is known for its friendly, walkable setting, and you're just minutes from Gainesville shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, and Northeast Georgia Medical Center. You get the convenience of a Gainesville address without paying city taxes -- something buyers often ask about.
This home is ideal for someone who wants low-maintenance living, newer construction, lake access, and a community that feels active but peaceful. It's for the buyer who's ready to spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying Lake Lanier, traveling, entertaining friends, and doing what they've worked hard to enjoy.
If you've been looking for single-level living near Lake Lanier with dock access included, this one checks the boxes -- and it feels even better in person. Owner is a licensed agent.
