Schedule your showing today! This one is already getting attention-she's ready to set sail with her new owner! Golf course living, Lake Lanier access and a beautifully reimagined ranch style home, this is the Gainesville lifestyle you've been waiting for. Tucked into the sought-after Chattahoochee Country Club area, this spacious four-bedroom, three-full-bath home has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving the comfortable character and easy livability of a classic ranch. From the moment you arrive, the welcoming front porch with its distinctive beadboard ceiling invites you to slow down and enjoy the setting. Inside, soaring ceilings, gleaming hardwoods, fresh crown molding and an abundance of windows create an airy, light-filled atmosphere. The rear of the home is especially impressive, where expansive windows frame a beautiful golf-course backdrop and bring the outdoors into nearly every main living space. The heart of the home is a beautifully redesigned kitchen featuring abundant custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, soft-close drawers, multiple pantries, tiled backsplash and an oversized breakfast bar. A generous dining area easily accommodates a large gathering, while the adjacent keeping room creates a comfortable spot to relax beside the stone fireplace. Shiplap accents and 9+ foot ceilings add architectural interest and warmth. The main-level primary suite takes full advantage of the setting with tranquil golf-course views and thoughtful details including a spacious bedroom, walk-in closet and shiplap accents. The renovated bath feels like a private retreat with a freestanding soaking tub, large tiled shower, marble-topped vanity and heated flooring-a luxurious touch you'll appreciate every day. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level, creating an ideal split-bedroom arrangement for family and guests. Modern upgrades throughout include LED lighting with dimmers, Ecobee thermostats and new atrium doors. Downstairs, the finished basement dramatically expands the home's possibilities. A separate entrance, full kitchen, breakfast area, additional bedroom/living space, full bath with tiled shower and dedicated laundry area provide an excellent setup for visiting guests, multigenerational living, a private retreat or other flexible-use needs. Outside is where this property truly shines. The expansive rear deck overlooks the golf course and private yard, offering plenty of space for dining, entertaining or simply taking in the view. A separate fire-pit area creates the perfect gathering spot as the day winds down. Covered golf-cart parking and an oversized two-car garage with exceptional storage add practicality to the property's lifestyle appeal. Best of all, there is no HOA, while optional membership at the nearby, member-owned Chattahoochee Country Club opens the door to an exceptional array of amenities, including Lake Lanier marina access, swimming, racquet sports, fitness and athletic facilities, dining, social activities and golf opportunities. The nearby Chattahoochee Golf Course provides 18 holes along the shores of Lake Lanier. Whether you're an avid golfer, a Lake Lanier enthusiast or simply looking for a beautifully updated home in an outstanding Gainesville location, this property offers the space, setting and flexibility to make everyday living feel like a getaway.
