An increasingly rare opportunity on Lake Lanier to create something truly your own. Set on a relatively FLAT LOT with BIG LAKE VIEWS in Deer Creek Shores, this property offers the kind of setting that is becoming harder to find - usable land, a peaceful and DROUGHT-PROOF cove, and a DOUBLE SLIP DOCK already in place. A MOW PERMIT extends your ability to maintain the view corridor from the home to the water, allowing for a more open, connected lake experience. The property is being sold AS-IS. Whether you are looking to reimagine the current structure or design and build a custom lake home from the ground up, this property presents a compelling foundation in a coveted neighborhood on Lake Lanier. Properties with this combination of lot usability, view, and dock configuration are limited - and becoming more so each year. Quietly positioned. Full of potential. Ready for its next chapter.
