2718 High Vista Point, Gainesville

Behind the gates of High Pointe - one of Lake Lanier's most private and coveted enclaves - a rare opportunity has returned to market. Fewer than 20 luxury residences call this community home, and only a select few include a deeded covered boat slip at the community dock, and this one does. The stone-clad exterior opens to a home crafted for those who live lake life well without announcement. Shiplap ceilings with exposed beams, rich hardwood floors, arched built-ins, and a hearth built from historic south Georgia brick anchor a living room where French doors open directly to year-round lake vistas. Inside and outside exist here in constant conversation. The gourmet kitchen is organized around a substantial custom butcher-block island, with custom cabinetry, designer granite surfaces, conversational buffet, and traditional wet bar and beverage concierge. The adjoining dining space looks directly over the lake - a view so present it becomes part of every meal. The primary suite wakes to lake and sky each morning, with a Carrara marble spa bath and an impressive wardrobe with custom built-ins and accessory island. The private study - shiplap-walled, lantern-lit, bay-windowed - is among the most distinguished home offices you'll find at any price. The main-level covered rear porch with its stone fireplace and travertine tile is a full outdoor living room, with the lake shimmering below. The terrace level expands the home into a complete entertainment suite - second den, wet bar kitchenette, two ensuite bedrooms, home gym, and second full porch. Watch deer move through the tree line at dusk or ospreys skim the surface at dawn - this is a home where nature performs daily. The deeded covered boat slip is a priceless amenity - putting all of Lake Lanier at your doorstep without the burden of private waterfront maintenance. High Pointe on Lake Lanier. Gated. Exclusive.
