8970 Fields Way, Gainesville, GA 30506
What's special
Rare north Lake Lanier opportunity where every feature buyers chase actually exists in one place. This approximately 7,800 square foot custom estate sits on a beautifully tiered, mature acre that descends gracefully to a true level lawn at the water's edge, a feature almost never found on Lanier, and continues to a private deep-water dock that holds water year-round, complete with hydro boat lift, jet ski platform, and multi-level entertaining decks. No HOA. Unobstructed water views frame nearly every room, and the property's north-side location places owners minutes from the dining, shopping, and commerce of Gainesville, Cumming, and Dawsonville, with quick GA 400 access and highly regarded Forsyth County Schools. The main- level primary suite is a true retreat with panoramic water views, private deck access, marble bath with double-head shower, oversized jacuzzi tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. Real hardwoods run throughout the main level, anchored by a stacked stone fireplace and a thoughtfully designed kitchen with custom cabinetry, pullout drawers, wet bar, and color- adjustable LED lighting that flows into the living area for a fully customizable ambiance. A dedicated home office, formal dining, expansive laundry with sink, toilet, and chute, and a full- width covered and open-air back deck complete the main floor. Downstairs, the enormous finished terrace level is its own destination: full gym, private sauna, painted brick fireplace, expansive bar, and a game room with pool table, shuffleboard, and air hockey, plus a dedicated theater with projector and A/V closet, two full baths, and a utility room with dual tankless water heaters. Outside, custom wrought iron railings and staircases wind through mature, professionally landscaped grounds to the dock, a Michael Phelps Signature hot tub, outdoor storage shed, and generous space for a future pool. Four bedrooms, four full baths, two half baths, 2.5-car garage, dual attic storage, and a stained and stamped driveway. Year-round deep water, level lakefront lawn, unobstructed views, no HOA, and an unbeatable north-side commerce-corridor location. This combination simply does not come available on Lake Lanier.
