From the moment you arrive, this Harbour Point home begins with a sense of scale—but the real story unfolds beyond the front door. Extensively renovated throughout, the home opens to soaring ceilings, graceful architectural details, sun-filled living spaces and walls of windows that continually pull your eye toward extraordinary Lake Lanier views. The beautifully redesigned kitchen flows into fireside gathering spaces and dining areas where the lake becomes part of the room, while the primary suite creates its own retreat with a sitting area, panoramic views and a spa-inspired bath. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, the fully finished basement changes the possibilities entirely: a full bedroom and bath, two additional bonus rooms, living area, second kitchen/wet bar, office and game room provide an impressive amount of flexible space for entertaining, working, hobbies, guests and everyday living. Step outside and the experience expands again across 1.25 acres, with decks and covered outdoor spaces overlooking the water and wooded surroundings. What makes this property especially intriguing is what lies beyond the view. The wooded acreage extends toward Lake Lanier and adjoining U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property, with the option to create a golf cart path through the woods toward the water. At the shoreline, a small beach area offers a natural spot to launch a kayak or float and enjoy the lake from an entirely different perspective. For buyers who want boating access, a boat slip rental is available for $200 per month. Harbour Point places all of this within one of Lake Lanier’s established gated lake communities, while Gainesville offers nearby dining, shopping and recreation. Add an extensive renovation and a list price below the home’s appraised value, and this is more than a beautiful lake home—it’s an opportunity to experience Lake Lanier from morning coffee overlooking the water to an afternoon spent on it. The photographs show the renovation. They show the space. They even show the view. What they can’t quite capture is what it feels like to live above the lake, wander through your own wooded acreage toward the shoreline, or watch the water change with the sunset from room to room. Schedule a private tour of this Harbour Point home today. There’s considerably more here than first meets the eye—and that may be the best reason to come see it in person.
