Primary suite on the main, a brand-new 32x32 single-slip dock, and a gentle walk to the water. 4217 Tall Hickory Trail delivers the Lake Lanier features buyers want most, set within one-of-a-kind heavy timber architecture. Inside, 40-foot vaulted cedar ceilings and huge picture windows frame panoramic lake views from the breakfast table, the loft, and the main-level primary suite. Custom cast-glass double doors, travertine stone floors, mosaic-pattern natural hardwoods, solid-core wood doors, and a Brazilian hardwood deck reflect craftsmanship seldom found at this price. The finished terrace level adds a recreation room, guest bedroom, kitchenette, full bath with sauna, and a dedicated gym. Outside, manicured gardens feature low-maintenance perennials, producing peach, fig, and blueberry plants, and room for seasonal planting. A 3-car garage, a private cove setting, and the oak-lined Cherokee Forest community with pool and playground complete this truly distinctive lake home. Up to $13k available for buyers through special program offered by preferred lender.
