Come and discover all the wonders 9170 Lisa Circle has to offer. Hidden among mature gardens on a quiet cove of Lake Lanier, this character-filled home unfolds one inviting space at a time, from its stunning two-story great room to its screened in porches, peaceful gardens and private dock. From the moment you arrive, there's a sense of discovery. Steps lead down from the road to the home, creating a feeling of separation from the outside world. Along the way, tucked-away sitting areas, flowering hydrangeas, Rose of Sharon and lush, established landscaping give the property an almost secret garden quality. Rather than listening to cars and looking at street views, you're surrounded by greenery, peaceful outdoor spaces and glimpses of the lake. Inside, the home offers warmth, architectural character and a wonderful separation of living spaces across three finished levels. The main floor features an eat-in kitchen that opens to a spacious two-story great room with a masonry brick fireplace, along with a large bedroom and full bath. Just beyond the living area, a generous screened porch and adjoining open deck invite you to slow down, whether it's morning coffee, an afternoon with a good book or a quiet evening overlooking the water. Upstairs, the primary suite provides a peaceful retreat of its own. The fully finished terrace level adds even more living space, with an additional bedroom, full bath, comfortable living area, laundry room, stone fireplace and a sunroom currently used as an artist's studio. Two additional screened porches offer yet more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, making this level equally suited for visiting family, creative pursuits or relaxed days at home. A detached garage provides valuable workshop and storage space and the possibility of more living space down the road, should you choose. The roof and the GREE 2030-compliant High Efficiency HVAC system are both approximately three years old, as is the decking, deck railing and solar lights around the deck. Outside, the connection to the lake is what makes this property truly special. Wander through the gardens, find your favorite place to sit, or head down to the private dock for a morning paddle, an afternoon of fishing or simply watching the water. With Two Mile Creek Park and Bethel Park just around the corner, you have two additional options to launch your boat. And despite its wonderfully secluded setting, the home is conveniently located just 20 minutes from Gainesville, Dawsonville and Cumming, offering easy access to shopping, dining and everyday conveniences. The property is zoned for East Forsyth High School. A Lake Lanier home in Forsyth County with this much privacy, personality and charm, at such an approachable price point, is a special find. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a weekend escape, come and see all the charm this special home has to offer and make it yours before the next lake season is here!
