Forsyth Homes with Deep Water Access Waterfront Features

Welcome to exceptional **deep-water Lake Lanier living** in Chestatee Landing. Privately positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac, this meticulously maintained Craftsman home pairs a beautiful lake setting with a fabulous floor plan, extensive outdoor living, thoughtful hardscape and landscaping, and a standout **two-level private dock**. The lake experience is the true centerpiece. A beautifully designed stone terrace with fire pit overlooks the water, creating an incredible gathering space beneath the trees, while stairs lead directly to the private dock. The dock features a covered lower level for boating and water access plus a spectacular upper sun deck with **sleek glass railings designed to preserve the sweeping lake views**-an ideal setting for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying sunsets over the water. Thoughtful lake access sets this property apart. A **third attached garage accesible on the terrace level is designed for golf-cart use**, connecting to a paved path that runs along the right side of the home and continues to the lakeside landing, fire pit terrace, and dock access. This creates an exceptionally convenient route for transporting lake gear, coolers, guests, and supplies from the home directly toward the water. Another significant advantage is the property's **low U.S. Army Corps of Engineers line**, allowing much of the backyard to remain within the homeowner's property and offering greater flexibility for landscaping, improvements, and selective tree removal, subject to applicable requirements. Combined with the extensive hardscape, mature landscaping, and direct lake access, the outdoor setting has been exceptionally well planned for both beauty and function. Inside, the home is equally impressive. The open, inviting floor plan features rich hardwoods, substantial millwork, custom cabinetry, and exceptional craftsmanship throughout. The well-appointed kitchen includes a **Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking appliances**, granite countertops, a striking copper farmhouse sink, abundant custom cabinetry, and a cleverly concealed walk-in pantry providing outstanding storage. The main-level primary suite offers privacy and convenience, while generous living spaces flow easily for everyday living and entertaining. The finished terrace level is a destination of its own, featuring handsome wood beams, a stone fireplace, expansive gathering space, a dedicated billiard area, multiple walkouts to the outdoors, and a beautifully designed full bar-perfect for game days, lake weekends, and hosting family and friends. Covered porches, mature landscaping, extensive stonework, and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces create a seamless connection from the home to the lake. This is a rare opportunity to own a **meticulously cared-for Lake Lanier property with deep-water access, exceptional golf-cart access to the waterfront, a high-end two-level dock, expansive usable backyard space, and outstanding indoor and outdoor entertaining areas** in the highly regarded Forsyth County School District.

There is no other property on Lake Lanier like this one, not one. 9330 Lisa Circle is a bespoke, ground-up new construction, designed and executed without a single compromise, positioned on a rare peninsula lot with approximately 150 feet of deep-water shoreline. The western exposure delivers sunsets that have to be seen to be believed, and the 32x32 custom single-slip party dock sits ready the moment you arrive. This is 5,279 square feet of pure intention. The main level opens into a soaring great room with 22-foot ceilings, anchored by 11-foot Windsor windows throughout the home that frame the lake like a living painting. Custom coffered beam work stretches across the ceiling above you. Two grand fireplaces with gas logs and real bronze mantles anchor the living spaces. Every surface, every fixture, every finish was chosen with the same standard: the best available. The primary bedroom offers exquisite views and the most luxurious spa bathroom. Expansive custom closet with fold out shoe feature has to be seen in person! Kingdom Woodworks cabinetry featuring one inch doors and drawers is utilized throughout the entire home. The kitchen is a chef's showpiece with Thermador suite of appliances, a wine fridge, 2 ice makers (one pebble ice) and one-of-a-kind imported Calacatta Macchia Vecchia marble countertops butterflied on the island. A dedicated coffee station and 6-stage reverse osmosis water filtration system are just a few of the details the builder considered. A walk-in Butler's pantry carries the same level of incomparable craftsmanship as does the laundry room featuring a dedicated sink with a pet washing station, because no detail was overlooked. Two additional en-suite bedrooms, each with custom closets and extensive lake views anchor the terrace level. A fourth bedroom, equally impressive as a flex space or private gym, and second laundry round out the terrace level alongside a full terrace kitchen with its own ice machine and beverage cooler, perfect for seamless entertaining straight from the lake. Every en suite bath and both half baths showcase exquisite finishes including Porcelanosa tile imported from Spain, Brizo and real brass fixtures, Kohler toilets, and designer wallpaper that elevates every space. Lighting is exclusively Ralph Lauren and RH. Stone walls, custom beam work, and designer wallpaper appear throughout. The limestone carries from the exterior facade straight through the interior. Two-by-six framing and spray foam insulation throughout the entire envelope mean this home performs as well as it looks. A tankless water heater, whole-home custom entertainment system, and generator-ready infrastructure complete the picture. Outside, a top-of-the-line Hot Springs spa awaits. A level, cleared path leads you just steps from the house directly to the brand-new 32x32 party dock, sitting on deep water with privacy that is exceptional and sunsets that are unforgettable. This is the kind of peninsula lot buyers wait years for on Lake Lanier and it has never existed in a home like this. This isn't just a new build, it's the start of your own Lake Lanier story, a Heritage property to start your own legacy. This home is offered fully furnished with all custom furnishings made specifically for the home and includes a 2020 Cobalt R5 with only 210 hours and a full suite of upgrades. By Appointment only. Proof of funds or Pre approval required. All showings must be accompanied by the listing agent.
