Lake Home For Sale

The only move-in ready home remaining in the Burton community, Lake Burton's only walkable community, nestled in the Chattahoochee National Forest and connected to the lake and LaPrade's Marina. Endearingly named *Maidenhair* by designer Lew Oliver, this home (homesite 11) is a new 3,185 sq ft cottage being built by McKinney Builders. The five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath home is situated near the top of the 82-acre property, and is the second annual Atlanta Homes Lifestyles' Burton Showhouse. The home's historical vernacular tradition pays homage to housing from the late 1800s with a modern update featuring high-quality local materials, artisan craftsmanship, and luxury finishes and fixtures (with interior selections by Dana Lynch Design). The Maidenhair plan is a triumph of modern living, boasting 2,785 sf, 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms in the main house, and an oversized terrace off the primary bedroom as well as a porch and balcony on the first floor. There is a custom, 400 sq ft in-law suite with an additional full bedroom and bath steps from the main house on the second floor of the coach house. There is a finished basement with room to customize. The seamless layout exhibits a large, lofted living/kitchen room featuring Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, 36 inch Wolf gas range and Cove dishwasher stainless appliance package, cozy fireplace, and oversized eat-in kitchen. The dark earth exterior nestles the home into the landscape to blend in and not overpower the natural environment, notably the national forest surrounding the community. The property has native plants and landscaping, geothermal HVAC for noise elimination, and outdoor lighting restrictions to enjoy the night sky. The residence is designed to age gracefully in the pedestrian-friendly hamlet, which offers connectivity to Lake Burton and LaPrade's Marina--a hub of lake life with dining and live music. Burton amenities include 5 miles of trails that connect to the national forest and Appalachian Trail, three fishing ponds, a 150-foot waterfall, and a trout stream flowing through the property. Opening summer '25, Burton homeowners will soon enjoy the new Burton Boathouse with community gathering space, fitness and wellness facilities, spa, hot tub and pool, and boat slips, with a walking path to LaPrade's Marina. Burton is being developed by Pace Lynch in collaboration with town planner and designer Lew Oliver, and landscape and garden designer P. Allen Smith. Homesite 11 was staged by Lelanie Morrison Designs.
