Lake Lanier Real Estate Today

Today we're following up on a community in Oakwood, Georgia called Pointe West.  It's an upscale community with lakefront and off lake homes.  Located on the east side of Lake Lanier, Pointe West is close to I-985 and a short commute north to Gainesville or south to Buford and Duluth.  Here's a map of Pointe West:

Homes in Pointe West are representative of elegance on Lake Lanier.  Currently, there are a number of homes for sale in this neighborhood.  To take a look at what we're referring to, see the detailed listings of homes for sale in Pointe West.

The next topic for today has to do with Lake Lanier's shoreline and interaction with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.  When we are showing properties on the lake, we are always asked about the rules regarding the shoreline, paths, grounds maintenance and dock permits.  For clarification, we always refer clients to the online version of the Shoreline Management Plan.  In this plan, you'll find many answers to most of your questions regarding these issues.  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is very clear about its rules and regulations for the shoreline of Lake Lanier.  We have a link to the plan on our website at LakeSidneyLanierHomes.com .

This Lake Lanier home popped up on our searches this morning and it's a stunner!  4198 Cumberland Point Drive, Gainesville, Ga.  Take a look at this incredible property in Cumberland on Lanier.  Sweeping views of the lake and every luxury feature you can imagine.
