9040 Ruby Ln, Gainesville, GA 30506
What's special
One of the best locations on Lake Lanier - Forsyth County, on a private road just around the corner from Pelican Pete's and Port Royale Marina! Your own PRIVATE dock, no HOA and no HOA restrictions make this a great opportunity as a main home, second lake home or rental property (Forsyth County requires a 1-month minimum rental). A beautiful koi pond welcomes you to this freshly painted home in a private wooded setting just off Browns Bridge Rd. An easy walk leads to your 6-year-old dock with a large boat slip, jet ski lifts and a party deck up top - 8+ ft of water at the back of the dock, typically about 13 ft. Inside: separate living and family rooms, a formal dining room, vaulted ceilings, skylights, hardwoods and a stone fireplace. The renovated kitchen features newer cabinets, quartz counters, updated backsplash and a breakfast bar. Four bedrooms up, including a primary suite with private walk out to the deck. Outside, enjoy the large hot tub on the deck and a beautiful fire pit area in the private fenced backyard. Room for the boat trailer, water toys or an RV, plus a 2-car garage. East Forsyth schools, minutes to GA-400. Boating, fishing and waterfront dining - this is Lake Lanier living at a price that's hard to find! Eligible buyers financing with preferred lender Lukas Joao at CrossCountry Mortgage may choose up to $3,000 in lender credit toward closing costs OR up to $16,000 through a special lender program, subject to lender approval and program requirements.
