4418 Shellie Ln, Oakwood, GA 30566

As the sun rises over Lake Lanier, the stillness of the morning is only interrupted by the gentle sound of water lapping against the shore. At 4418 Shellie Lane, life moves at a different pace—one defined by peaceful mornings on the deck, afternoons spent cruising the open water, and evenings gathered with friends as the sky turns shades of orange and pink. This custom-built lakefront retreat, situated on 105 feet of shoreline in a deep-water cove, offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. Tucked away from boat traffic, yet just minutes from the lake’s best marinas and waterfront restaurants, the location couldn’t be better. And with paved roads leading all the way to your front door, access is effortless—a luxury not often found on the lake. Stepping inside, the warmth of newly refinished white oak hardwood floors welcomes you. Sunlight pours through the windows, highlighting the fresh interior paint and the thoughtful updates that make this home truly move-in ready. The updated kitchen, complete with freshly painted cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, opens to a cozy keeping room where a gas fireplace flickers, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee before the day’s adventures begin. Just beyond the kitchen, the main level unfolds with a spacious living and dining area, a dedicated home office, and a full bath—a layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, with newly installed hardwood floors and a beautifully renovated en suite bath. Three additional bedrooms, a bonus room, and an additional 1.5 baths provide plenty of space for family and guests. Downstairs, the terrace level is designed for fun, offering a full bar/kitchenette, billiards area, and a full bath. Whether it’s game nights, movie marathons, or unwinding after a day on the water, this space is ready to host memories in the making. Enjoy lake views from all levels of the home, seamlessly blending nature with your private sanctuary. Beyond the home, the fully fenced backyard invites play, relaxation, or even the possibility of a future pool. The updated deck, complete with brand-new flooring and railings, is the ideal place to gather for summer barbecues, evening cocktails, or simply soaking in the view. And just a short, gentle walk away, the private single-slip dock awaits. With a boat hoist, jet ski port, and a party deck with brand-new wood decking, this is where lake life truly begins. The protected cove is perfect for swimming and kayaking, while its deep water (14+ feet at the dock) ensures year-round access for boating. While the lake feels like its own world, modern conveniences are never far. High-speed fiber internet makes working remotely a breeze, while recent HVAC updates and improved ductwork ensure comfort in every season. And when it’s time to venture beyond the water, the home’s prime south-end location means you’re just minutes from I-985, medical facilities, shopping, and the charming downtowns of Flowery Branch and Buford. Whether you’re looking for a full-time lakefront residence, a weekend getaway, or an income-producing short-term rental, 4418 Shellie Lane is ready to welcome you home. Here, lake life isn’t just a destination—it’s a way of living.
