About this home
If you've been searching for a Lake Lanier lakefront home with a year-round deep-water private dock and no HOA, your search ends here. On a lake where dock-permitted waterfront properties are genuinely hard to come by, 6265 Reives Road delivers the access and lifestyle Lake Lanier buyers are after - at a price that reflects real value in today's market. The home is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath ranch with a finished walk-out terrace level on nearly an acre along the south shore of Lake Lanier in Forsyth County - one of the most convenient and coveted stretches of the lake. Major systems have been addressed so you can focus on the lake, not a to-do list. A brand-new 2026 HVAC system pairs with a 2023 roof, open-cell spray foam insulation throughout, 2022 siding, gutters, and exterior paint, and all-new double-hung tilt-in vinyl windows. Smart home features - Honeywell thermostat, smart garage doors, door locks and doorbell, exterior lighting, and security cameras - round out the updates. Inside, the living room opens to a cathedral ceiling with shiplap accent walls and beamed ceilings that set a comfortable, relaxed tone. The eat-in kitchen features a granite island and counters, a 5-burner Frigidaire range, and a Fisher & Paykel 2-drawer dishwasher, with a separate dining room alongside. The main-level primary suite includes a fireplace and a whirlpool tub - a proper retreat after a day on the water. Custom shelving and closet organizers run throughout the home, and recessed lighting keeps things clean and bright. Downstairs, the walk-out terrace level includes a home theater with a built-in fireplace and multi-room sound system, a kitchenette with full-size refrigerator, a game and living area, a bunk area with Eno hammocks, and a storage area with utility sink - all on low-maintenance stained and scored concrete floors. The real story is the water access. The private covered single-slip dock with party deck sits in proven deep water - even at lower lake levels, you can launch and go. A drivable golf cart path connects the home straight to the dock, which has both water and electric on site. From there, you're less than a half-mile to Six Mile Creek Park (boat ramp and beach) and just minutes by boat to Holiday Marina, Port Royale, and Pelican Pete's floating restaurant. This is genuine Lake Lanier waterfront living with a private dock to show for it. Outside, the property is laid out for easy lake-life entertaining. A maintenance-free Trex deck on the rear - with 384 square feet of enclosed dry storage below with two barn doors - connects to a covered breezeway and a screened porch that's ideal for morning coffee or winding down at sunset. A fire pit patio anchors the backyard, which is flat, grassy, and has room to add a pool. A detached greenhouse with ventilation system and a separate detached workshop with plumbing and heat give you flexibility - whether you need a potting room, a pool house, or a place to store lake toys. The oversized 3-car garage (with room for a lift) keeps vehicles and gear out of the weather, and upgraded landscaping with heirloom irises adds a nice touch at the edges. Location is one of this property's strongest assets. You're less than 10 minutes from GA-400, top-rated Forsyth County schools, and everyday shopping and dining in Cumming, GA. Atlanta's Buckhead and Midtown are about 45 minutes south, while the North Georgia mountains - Dahlonega, Helen, hiking, waterfalls, and award-winning wineries - are 30 to 45 minutes north. It's a rare address that puts the lake, the city, and the mountains all within easy reach. If you're looking for an honest value in Lake Lanier lakefront real estate with real water access and a solid foundation to build on, this one is worth seeing in person....
