Skills That You Can Learn In The Real Estate Market

Completely reimagined and thoughtfully curated, this one-of-a-kind cottage in the highly sought-after Chestatee Lake and Golf Community offers the perfect blend of luxury and charm. Tucked away on a peaceful, private road, this custom home has been fully renovated by a professional designer and builder, delivering a truly turnkey experience with elevated finishes throughout.

The open-concept floor plan is anchored by a stunning chef’s kitchen featuring new shaker-style cabinetry, high-end Italian appliances, designer fixtures and lighting, a five-burner gas range, and a striking marble-style porcelain island designed for both durability and entertaining.

The foyer and dramatic two-story living room make an immediate impression with custom board and batten detailing surrounding the fireplace, herringbone brick-style flooring in the foyer and powder room, and beautifully refinished heart of pine floors. Expansive windows flood the home with natural light, enhancing the warmth and character of every room. The main living areas—including the kitchen, living room, dining space, office/flex room, and half bath—have all been completely renovated with exceptional attention to detail.

Beyond the designer renovation, the current homeowner has made extensive, high-quality improvements that further elevate the home’s comfort, efficiency, and overall value. Enhancements include upgraded R44 insulation above the dining room and throughout the attic, a kitchen water filtration system with regularly maintained cartridges, and a Lennox smart thermostat for modern climate control. The living room showcases custom accent wall molding, while the primary suite has been fully transformed with a remodeled bathroom and closet, along with new tile flooring in the bedroom.

Additional upgrades include new Andersen windows, a new 55-gallon water heater, professional duct cleaning, fresh interior paint, new hardwood floors throughout the 2nd story loft, and new carpet throughout the secondary bedrooms. The exterior has also been thoughtfully improved with river stone landscaping for enhanced drainage and curb appeal, a freshly painted driveway, and completed metal roof updates including inspection and replacement of all fasteners and bolts. A transferable wildlife exclusion system (annual renewal applies) adds an extra layer of protection and peace of mind.

These updates reflect a true commitment to maintenance, quality craftsmanship, and modern living—making this home genuinely move-in ready.

This property also presents a rare opportunity for instant equity and customization, offering approximately 1,800 square feet of unfinished terrace-level space and an additional 800 square feet above the garage, already accessible via a built-in staircase—ideal for future expansion.

The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, highlighted by an oversized Charleston-style covered front porch, additional side porches, and an extended rear entry featuring brickwork, Trex decking, a charming Dutch door, and a shed roof. The home also includes a newly expanded parking pad, irrigation system, and meticulously selected interior and exterior paint finishes that elevate its curb appeal.

The daylight terrace level is already plumbed and insulated, providing a strong foundation for future finishing.

Located just steps from Lake Lanier and one of the community’s covered docks, this home delivers an authentic lake lifestyle. Residents of Chestatee enjoy a resort-style setting with access to a championship golf course, Jr. Olympic pool, tennis and pickleball courts, clubhouse, restaurant, playground, pavilion, and a vibrant social calendar.
