Lake Lanier living with a neighborhood heartbeat, in the East Forsyth School District. Freshly painted inside and out, with new carpet and lighting throughout, this move-in ready St. Michael's Bay home rests on a private cul-de-sac lot, with nothing left to do but arrive. There's even a boat slip available. Sunlight pours through the two-story foyer and across hardwood floors toward the formal dining room and an office with doors. The kitchen steals the show. A massive island anchors the room, and everyone naturally gathers around it. Beyond, a coffered-ceiling great room invites you to settle in, and a main-level bedroom suite adds easy flexibility. Slip out to the added screened porch, with composite decking, an electric fireplace, and a serving window to the deck, and let the morning coffee last. Evenings glow out here. The backyard stretches beyond with room for a pool. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat: picture windows over the yard, two walk-in closets, double sinks with generous vanity space, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Additional bedrooms each connect to a bathroom, and the laundry room lives on this level, right where it belongs. Downstairs, the finished basement turns up the fun with a guest suite, room for pool and ping-pong tables, built-in shelving framing a large TV, and a bar that opens to a secluded hot tub nook. Storage under the deck keeps the garage clear. Then there's the neighborhood: a resort-style pool, pickleball and tennis courts, a lakeside hiking trail, and a community dock. Few places pair this neighborhood feel with Lake Lanier access in East Forsyth. Ask about boat slip availability.
