About This Home
PRICE REDUCTION...Once-in-a-Generation Lakefront Estate on Jackson Lake Opportunities like this rarely come along. Nestled at the end of a private road on the coveted western side of Jackson Lake, this breathtaking 2.2-acre level peninsula offers over 900 feet of shoreline and stunning 270-degree panoramic water views. Mature hardwoods and towering pines create a peaceful canopy, while steady lake breezes make afternoons on the dock or wraparound porches feel like a permanent escape. Featured in the 2014 film Endless Love, this cinematic property is located less than 60 miles from Atlanta, combining unmatched privacy, convenience, and natural beauty. The custom home, built in 2009 by Marc Smith Custom Builders and designed by acclaimed Atlanta architect Jack Davis, blends refined comfort with thoughtful craftsmanship. Inside, shiplap walls and hardwood floors run throughout the house, while expansive windows offer light-filled views of the lake from nearly every room. The home includes six bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. Upstairs, the ensuite master features a private balcony with long lake views. A separate guest house with two ensuite bedrooms is connected to the main house by a charming covered walkway. On the main level, there is one ensuite bedroom, two additional bedrooms that share a bath, and a cozy TV room outfitted with two built-in beds. The designer kitchen is a chef's dream, complete with a large walk-in pantry featuring custom shelving, a separate storage room, a laundry room, custom concrete countertops, top of the line appliances, and a built-in bar with an ice maker for entertaining. Outdoor living is a highlight, with a spacious semi-covered wraparound porch that runs the length of the house, complemented by a covered sitting area with a raised stone fireplace-all oriented to take in the sweeping lake views. The home was designed for low maintenance with Hardie Plank and shingle exterior, a durable metal roof, and energy-efficient Pella windows and doors. The exterior was freshly painted in the summer of 2024. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with Emerald Zoysia grass, majestic hardwoods, and lush gardens, creating a private and serene setting ideal for gatherings and outdoor enjoyment. The nearly flat lot provides ample usable space for games, relaxing, or entertaining. The private dock, fully refurbished in 2024, includes a boat slip with a lift and two jet ski lifts. Whether you're launching watercraft, fishing, or simply soaking up the sun, the dock is designed for both fun and functionality. This extraordinary Jackson Lake property is perfect as a full-time residence, family compound, or legacy retreat. With its rare combination of privacy, expansive water frontage, and timeless architecture, it truly is a once-in-a-generation opportunity. This home has been used as a family getaway and never as a full time residence. Schedule your private tour today-your lakefront dream awaits.
