Some homes make a first impression. This one leaves a lasting one — and it includes Dock Slip D-10, giving you immediate, no-wait access to the Lake Lanier lifestyle. This home breaks from the traditional all-brick, oversized McMansion mold found throughout luxury communities. The entrance is more than a statement; it's a portal into resort-style living that never loses its warmth. Inside, the design, finishes, and floor plan unfold with intention: a U-shaped layout that wraps around a private courtyard, organizing the home into three distinct wings, each with its own rhythm, all drawn back to one shared center. That center is the living, kitchen, and dining space — open to each other and to the pool patio beyond a full wall of sliding doors. It's a quiet statement as much as a necessity: the literal heart of the home, pulling residents back together from their separate wings at the end of the day. Beyond those doors, the courtyard becomes its own destination — a gunite pool and hot tub, outdoor kitchen, vaulted covered patio with exposed beams, and a stone fireplace built for year-round gathering, not just summer afternoons. Just as distinctive is the fully separate living suite — complete with its own full bath, kitchenette, and private garage. Positioned close enough for connection but far enough for real privacy, it's a natural fit for multigenerational living, long-term guests, a private executive office, creative studio, or fitness space, with its own pool access for guests who want the resort experience without stepping inside the main house. On the main level, the oversized primary suite connects to a dedicated office, creating a quiet retreat that's as practical as it is peaceful. Downstairs, an unfinished basement with walkout access is ready for a future theater room, home gym, or rec room. Beyond the home itself, Marina Bay delivers more resort-style living: a clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, pickleball and tennis courts, and an active social calendar that makes it easy to connect with neighbors. This is a home built around how people actually want to live — where thoughtful architecture, exceptional outdoor living, and one of the lake's most distinctive settings come together to create something genuinely different from anything else in the neighborhood.
