A RARE LAKE RABUN ESTATE
Own a remarkable piece of Lake Rabun’s history with this extraordinary 1.36-acre lakefront property. Tucked away at the end of a private road, this one-of-a-kind estate boasts MORE THAN 406 FEET OF LAKEFRONT SHORELINE WRAPPING AROUND A DEEP-WATER PENNINSULA in one of the lake’s largest basins.
The original mid-century U-shaped brick ranch, designed and built in the late 1960s with local materials and craftsmanship, welcomes you with a stone-paved courtyard and enchanting raised rock garden.
Inside, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, locally milled paneling, handcrafted shelving, and a massive mountain-stone fireplace create timeless warmth. Walls of windows and oversized sliding doors capture sweeping panoramic lake views, opening to a covered wraparound patio with multiple seating areas. The kitchen—highlighted by its own brick-front cooking fireplace, handcrafted cabinetry with leaded glass, and expansive prep space—overlooks the lake.
Accommodations include a main-level master suite with dressing room, a private-entry guest suite with lakeview deck, and a spacious one-bedroom terrace-level apartment with full kitchen, living room with fireplace, and walk-out patio. Additional spaces include a two-car carport with full bath and deck (designed for easy guest suite conversion) and a large heated workshop with water and electricity.
Stone steps lead to the shoreline, where a 2010 double-decker, two-slip boat dock with lifts awaits. The upper level offers both screened and open sections with ceiling fans, TV mount, sun deck, and jump platform. The property also retains its original swim dock with rock steps into the lake. Georgia Power has previously approved plans for possible expansion of lake-level decking and swim docks, creating opportunity for even larger gatherings.
Lovingly cared for through the decades, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, unmatched shoreline, and breathtaking views. Whether you choose to restore its mid-century character, update with modern luxury, or design a brand-new lakefront retreat, this estate represents an extraordinary opportunity on Lake Rabun. Known for its crystal-clear waters, majestic mountain backdrop, and warm, close-knit community, Lake Rabun is the perfect setting for a truly remarkable lakefront lifestyle. Agent is part owner.
