Set behind a private gated drive, this Lake Oconee retreat is positioned on a rare peninsula-style point lot with sweeping open water views, offering exceptional privacy, true lake frontage, and resort-style outdoor living without the constraints of a resort or golf community. Custom built with income production in mind, this home has successfully functioned as a short-term rental, yet its design, quality, and setting make it equally compelling as a full-time residence or forever home. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the home captures sweeping water views and seamless indoor-outdoor flow throughout. An expansive covered porch wraps the home, creating multiple spaces to gather just steps from the shoreline. Inside, a light-filled foyer opens to a dramatic water view and great room with vaulted wood-paneled ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace, and oversized windows framing the lake. Custom craftsmanship and thoughtful design details, including an integrated home audio system and a custom-built walk-in safe, are evident throughout. The chef’s kitchen blends style and function with high-end appliances, walk-in pantry, quartz countertops and backsplash, a farmhouse sink, oversized island with storage, and a dedicated bar area ideal for hosting. The adjacent breakfast area overlooks the porch and water, reinforcing the home’s connection to its setting. The main-level primary suite is a private sanctuary with tranquil lake views and a spa-inspired bath featuring an oversized frameless glass shower and space already plumbed for a future freestanding soaking tub. A secondary ensuite bedroom, full laundry room, half-bath for guests and generous storage complete the main level. Upstairs, a large living space connects to two spacious bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath, both enjoying gorgeous water views, along with a bunk room and a second full upstairs bath. This flexible upper level is well suited for guests, family, or rental accommodations. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues with a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, private dock, and direct lake access. Whether hosting gatherings, enjoying quiet mornings on the water, or maximizing its proven short-term rental appeal, this property delivers a level of freedom, flexibility, and lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find on Lake Oconee. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully designed, this is a rare opportunity to own a private, custom-built lakefront home that offers both exceptional lifestyle appeal and strong long-term potential.
