    What's special

    Exceptional waterfront propertyDetached two-car garageSweeping viewsInviting environment for hostingStone walkwaysNatural lightMotorized shades
    There is something rare about life on Berkeley Lake—quiet, connected, and deeply rooted in the calm of the water. Set on nearly 3/4 of an acre with 270 feet of shoreline, this exceptional waterfront property is positioned in the heart of the lake, offering sweeping views and a sense of privacy that is increasingly hard to find. This home has been fully renovated with intention, including a first-floor renovation in 2016 and additional first-floor and complete second-floor renovation in 2023. Expansive Marvin windows and doors and updated Velux skylights fill the home with natural light while framing the lake from every room exlcuding one back guest bedroom. The result is a seamless connection between indoor living and the natural beauty just beyond the glass. Designed for both everyday comfort and memorable gatherings, the home features a well-appointed gourmet Thermador kitchen with double convection ovens, warming drawer, separate ice maker, and space for an additional refrigerator or freezer. Open living spaces flow effortlessly, creating an inviting environment for hosting everything from intimate dinners to large celebrations. Upstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat, complete with a treetop balcony overlooking the water, a wet bar for morning coffee or evening wind-downs, and a spacious sitting room with fireplace and motorized shades—ideal for a home office, quiet escape, or both. The outdoor experience is equally compelling. Thoughtfully designed landscaping, stone walkways, irrigation, and lighting complement the natural setting, while multiple spaces invite you to slow down and stay awhile. A lakefront gazebo with electric and ceiling fan sets the stage for sunset dinners, and the private dock and two-slip boathouse make boating, swimming, fishing, and paddleboarding effortless. Covered storage for kayaks and paddleboards ensures everything is ready for a day on the water. Practicality meets rarity with a flat driveway, detached two-car garage, and additional guest parking—an uncommon convenience for lakefront homes. For over two decades, this home has been more than a residence—it has been a gathering place for family, friends, and generations of memories. A place where holidays are celebrated, summers stretch a little longer, and everyday life feels like a retreat. Berkeley Lake itself is a hidden gem just minutes from Atlanta, centered around a private 88-acre lake where residents boat, fish, paddle, and connect year-round. This is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle—and one that is ready to be cherished by its next lucky owners.
