Description

Charming Lake Lanier Cottage with Private Dock, One Owner & Endless Potential Tucked away on a peaceful, wooded lot, 6800 Thunder Trail is the kind of Lake Lanier home buyers hope to find - charming from the street, surprisingly spacious inside, and full of potential. Owned by one family since it was built in the 1980s, this threelevel home has been freshly updated while still offering the opportunity to add your own personal touch. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, luxury vinyl plank flooring on the main level and upstairs, a brandnew upper deck, and a new HVAC system, creating a bright, clean feel and a solid foundation for lake living.The layout offers both openness and privacy. The entire third level is dedicated to the owner's suite, complete with a full bath and a loftstyle balcony overlooking the living room, adding architectural interest and a sense of space. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level, along with a screened porch perfect for morning coffee or quiet evenings surrounded by trees. The finished basement provides flexible space ideal for a den, bunk room, home office, or game room.The kitchen includes a refrigerator, and the seller is offering a kitchen appliance allowance, allowing the buyer to choose the stove and dishwasher that best match their style - a rare chance to customize without paying for someone else's selections. Outside, enjoy the privacy of a fully wooded lot and a short walk down a trail to your private, permitted dock in deep, desirable water. Once you reach the bottom of the steps, the walk to the dock is level, and the dock can be extended during lowwater periods to maintain access. A detached onecar garage provides space for storage, lake toys, or a workshop. Located in a soughtafter area of Lake Lanier, you're just a 20minute boat ride to Pelican Pete's and other popular lake destinations. Whether you're dreaming of a weekend escape, fulltime lake living, or a smart investment with upside, this home offers character, updates, privacy, and possibility - all in a beautiful natural setting.
