Imagine summers on one of Northeast Georgia's most sought-after lakes, where mornings begin with coffee overlooking the water and evenings end around the glowing copper fire pit after a day on Lake Burton. Offered fully furnished, this fee-simple waterfront retreat is truly move-in ready, making it equally appealing as a private family getaway or an established vacation rental investment. Set on approximately 0.70 acres in a peaceful no-wake cove, the home features five bedrooms, three full baths, a private dock, plentiful parking, and room for covered dry boat storage beneath the carport. Enjoy the convenience of walking just 0.2 miles to Anchorage Marina and 0.3 miles to Farmhouse Market, while downtown Clayton's restaurants, shopping, and entertainment are only 10 minutes away. De signed for effortless lake living, the home offers exceptional indoor-outdoor spaces. The oversized screened porch serves as a true outdoor living room—large enough for dining, gathering with friends, or even sleeping on cool mountain evenings, just as classic lake homes were meant to be enjoyed. A covered outdoor dining area on the main level makes al fresco meals easy, while two additional open decks provide multiple places to relax. One deck offers beautiful sunset views across the lake, creating the perfect setting for evening cocktails or watching boats drift by. The current owners have thoughtfully enhanced the property with a beautifully rebuilt wood-burning fireplace featuring a stone surround, a custom outdoor entertaining area with a copper fire pit, string lights, and gravel seating area, new pine flooring in both king bedrooms, fresh interior paint throughout, quartz kitchen countertops with stainless steel appliances, a Pottery Barn bath vanity, designer lighting, finished basement updates, mature Rustic Countryside landscaping, and outdoor recreation equipment including badminton, beach tennis, and cornhole. The sale includes nearly everything needed to begin enjoying the home immediately, including beds, linens, televisions, living room furnishings, dining furniture, lamps, rugs, bookcases, console tables, and a fully stocked kitchen (excluding outdoor furniture and a small list of personal items). With its current vacation rental permit and dock permit already in place, this property offers exceptional flexibility for personal enjoyment and income potential. The private dock easily accommodates a pontoon boat, and the quiet cove offers a peaceful setting with wonderful neighbors and minimal boat traffic. Conveniently located approximately 100 miles from Buckhead, 40 miles from Cashiers, 30 miles from Highlands, 20 miles from Sautee, and 15 miles from Dillard, this is an ideal mountain-lake escape within easy reach of several of the Southeast's most desirable destinations. Whether you're searching for a place where family traditions will be made for generations or an investment that begins working for you on day one, this Lake Burton retreat delivers the rare opportunity to have both.
