CONTEMPORARY RANCH with BOAT SLIP in HICKORY LAKESIDE - GATED COMMUNITY. Experience Lake Lanier at its most refined. Tucked within the private, gated enclave of Hickory Lakeside on the coveted south end of the LAKE LANIER, this custom-built 2020 ranch offers a rare blend of understated luxury, effortless living, and immediate access to the water - complete with a dedicated boat slip. Set on a beautifully curated and fully fenced .85-acre homesite, the arrival is both elegant and inviting, framed by 8-foot knotty alder double doors that set the tone for the craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, a fresh, modern palette is complemented by newly updated lighting, custom window treatments, and refined finishes that create a sense of quiet sophistication. Designed for both intimate living and elevated entertaining, the chef's kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the home. Outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, JennAir 6-burner range with double ovens, quartz surfaces, and a thoughtfully designed walk-in pantry and butler's pantry, it seamlessly flows into the main living spaces - where soaring 10-foot ceilings and rich hardwoods enhance the open, airy feel. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat - private, serene, and impeccably appointed with a spa-inspired bath, freestanding soaking tub, oversized frameless shower, and a custom Tailored Living closet with direct access to the laundry. A separate upper-level suite with full bath offers ideal flexibility. Outdoors, the home transforms into a resort-style escape. A newly completed heated saltwater pool with tanning ledge anchors the backyard, while a fully equipped pavilion - featuring a Blaze grill, refrigeration drawers, and fireside gathering space - creates an effortless setting for year-round entertaining. The screened terrace with retractable pocket doors and fireplace blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living, designed for every season. The unfinished side-entry terrace level offers the rare opportunity to create a bespoke extension of the home - envisioned to suit your needs. Located moments from GA-400, Cumming City Center, and the forthcoming Crossing at Coal Mountain, this property delivers not only a premier lake lifestyle, but also exceptional convenience within one of Georgia's most sought-after school districts. This is more than a home - it's a turnkey lifestyle upgrade, ready to be enjoyed from day one.
