Just an hour from the fast-paced energy of Atlanta, you'll find a completely different world-peaceful, private, and welcoming-right here at Jackson Lake. Tucked inside the highly sought-after Turtle Cove community, this fully renovated lake home offers the perfect escape from the busy city lifestyle, where quiet mornings, friendly neighbors, and endless outdoor enjoyment become part of your everyday life.

Welcome to your move-in-ready retreat, where the current owners have just completed an extensive transformation, including NEW profession extrior paint and much more, allowing you to start enjoying the property from day one. Every detail has been thoughtfully updated so you can spend less time on projects and more time soaking in the natural beauty, privacy, and exceptional lakefront setting this home provides.

Set on an impressive 1.62-acre lot with generous shoreline and deep, clear water, the home is designed for both comfort and connection. The main level features a spacious primary suite along with two additional bedrooms, creating an ideal layout for easy living.

The lower level offers two more bedrooms, providing privacy and flexibility for guests or extended family. A large recreation room anchors the lower level, creating the ultimate gathering space complete with room for games and full 5.1 surround sound system-perfect for movie nights or game days.

Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. A stunning 60-foot composite deck with sleek vertical cable rails offers incredible views of the lake while maintaining a safe, open design. Portions of the deck are directly accessible from the primary suite and a secondary bedroom, creating private spaces to unwind.

The deck is also wired for outdoor entertainment making it ideal for hosting friends and family. Just below, an 80-foot brick paver patio expands your entertaining space even further, leading to a covered outdoor kitchen that is ready for everything from casual cookouts to full-scale gatherings.

With generous counter space, a built-in grill, burners, and sear station, plus room for a smoker or pizza oven, this area is designed to impress. The gently terraced yard provides multiple functional spaces, including a flat main terrace perfect for games like badminton, croquet, or spikeball.

Thoughtful lighting in the trees allows for evening play, while shaded afternoons make it comfortable even in the warmer months. Two firepit areas-one professionally installed near the home and a more rustic setting by the water-offer perfect spots to relax and enjoy cool evenings by the lake.

Down at the shoreline, located in a peaceful cove ideal for swimming, you'll find a maximum-allowed double covered slip dock with a swim platform and powered boat lift. Whether you enjoy boating, fishing, or simply floating in the calm water, this setup makes lake life effortless and enjoyable.

Additional features include a durable metal roof, all lake-facing doors and windows replaced in 2022 with built-in blinds, a new water heater, a spacious shop and mechanical room, a separate laundry room, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and charm to the interior.
