Welcome to 8225 Dogwood Trail-a truly extraordinary Lake Lanier estate, offered for the first time in two generations. This is more than a home; it is a place where memories were built, traditions were passed down, and life on the water was fully embraced. Set on what is arguably one of the finest lots on Lake Lanier, the property captures sweeping, unobstructed 180-degree water views, with rare privacy and deep-water access that places it in a class of its own. With no immediate neighbors beside you, the setting feels both expansive and deeply personal-a quiet retreat with panoramic beauty in every direction. Designed for both grand entertaining and everyday comfort, the home blends thoughtful architecture with high-end finishes. At its heart is an expanded chef's kitchen featuring Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, elegant Praa Sands quartz countertops, and a statement island that frames breathtaking lake views-an inviting space where conversations linger and moments are shared. The main-level primary suite offers a private sanctuary overlooking the water, complete with generous his-and-hers closets and a beautifully remodeled, spa-inspired bath. The oversized walk-in shower, featuring seven shower heads, creates a true resort-style experience-your own place to unwind and recharge. With five bedrooms, three full baths, two dedicated office spaces, and an elevator providing seamless access between levels, the home is as functional as it is beautiful-built to accommodate both productivity and relaxation. Step outside to your private saltwater pool, perfectly positioned for long summer evenings, gatherings with family and friends, or quiet mornings watching the light dance across the lake. Just beyond, a two-slip boathouse offers direct access to the water, making boating, swimming, and lake living effortless year-round. Additional features include a three-car garage, ample guest parking, and the rare and highly coveted grass and water permits-enhancing both the usability and long-term value of this exceptional property. To further enhance this offering, the seller is including a $100,000 buyer allowance-providing the flexibility to make the home your own from day one. Whether you choose to update and personalize the space, invest in a boat or jet skis to fully enjoy lake life, or simply offset ownership costs, the choice is entirely yours. This is a rare opportunity to carry forward the legacy of a truly special Lake Lanier home-where unmatched views, deep water, privacy, and timeless design come together in a way that is seldom available. A place meant to be cherished, and now ready for its next chapter.
