Welcome to 156 Lake Oglethorpe, a beautifully crafted custom builder’s home nestled on two private acres. Built in 2015 from the sought-after Holiday House plan of Hilton Head Island, this 3,000+ square-foot residence blends timeless design with exceptional quality, featuring durable Hardie board siding and a long-lasting aluminum roof. From the moment you arrive, the impeccable landscaping and wide front steps invite you to slow down and take in the setting. The expansive rocking-chair front porch—complete with a charming porch swing—offers peaceful views of the lake in the winter months, creating the perfect place to relax and unwind. Step through the French doors into a warm and welcoming living room filled with character. 6, 8, and 10" wide pine plank floors add rustic charm (each scratch tells a  story), while soaring 10-foot beadboard ceilings, crown molding, recessed lighting, ceiling fans in every room, and abundant windows fill the space with natural light. Built-in shelving frames a stunning river rock gas fireplace that can also burn wood, offering both beauty and versatility. A whole-house vacuum system adds everyday convenience. Pocket doors open to a true chef’s kitchen designed for gathering. At its heart is an impressive oversized island topped with striking Jurassic Green granite—maximized to a single slab and elevated for full-size seating. The kitchen features a double sink, stainless steel appliances, under-counter microwave, gas stove with Italian tile backsplash, and soft-close cabinetry throughout. Just beyond, the spacious laundry and mudroom continues the granite finishes and includes a deep sink, ample cabinetry, and storage for the whole-house vacuum system. Adjacent to the kitchen, a cozy sitting room or playroom provides additional living space, complete with a second river rock fireplace, built-in shelving, a beautifully tiled half bath with decorative rock flooring, and access to a side patio. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, highlighted by a dramatic 19-foot vaulted ceiling and its own fireplace. The oversized “his and hers” walk-in closet is large enough to double as a nursery or dressing room. The spa-like ensuite bath offers a deluxe double shower, private water closet, double granite vanity, and rustic wood-look tile flooring. Upstairs, a bright sitting or play area connects to two generously sized bedrooms and a full tiled bath. One bedroom provides direct access to a heated and cooled bonus room—ideal for a nursery, home office, media room, climate-controlled storage, or additional play space. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. Wide wooden steps lead from the kitchen to a paved patio featuring a tranquil koi pond and a covered entertaining and cooking area with sink and gas heater—perfect for gatherings year-round. Ceiling fans enhance comfort across all patio spaces. A small side garden attracts visiting deer, while a larger fenced garden with water access offers an “almost deer-proof” haven for serious gardeners. On the opposite side of the kitchen, an additional covered patio provides welcome shade during warm summer days. A breezeway connects the home to a detached two-car garage, with a lean-to storage area behind it and a nearby well house supplying calcium-rich water. The gravel driveway opens into a generous paved parking area for added convenience. As a member, you’ll enjoy full access to Lake Oglethorpe through the neighborhood dock—perfect for fishing, swimming, paddling, or joining a neighbor for a pontoon ride. Spectacular sunsets over the water provide a breathtaking finish to each day. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience 156 Lake Oglethorpe—a truly special place to call home.

Arguably one of the coolest houses and lots on Lake Oglethorpe just outside of Athens GA. This lake community is home to many UGA related folks, and is one of the area's best kept secrets. The lake is private and has fishing that is stellar and a community dock for gathering and swimming. 199 Lakeside is a lakefront property with its own swim/fish/boat dock as well. This home was custom built for the current owners and was framed by quality craftsmen from Finland with much of the lumber coming from British Columbia. The true lake cabin in the woods feel will have you pinching yourself that you are a mere 20 minutes from campus. The main floor living area has soaring vault ceilings with exposed wood beams, pecky cypress walls, wood floors (throughout), and amazing natural light through custom built windows with views out to the lake beyond the extra large back deck, which is so inviting that we had to use it for our main picture. Gorgeous artisan tile surrounds a perfectly sized wood stove for a cozy, cost saving living experience. The super user-friendly kitchen opens to the great room and has a large pantry and views to the front of the property with its country road style circular driveway with two access points and woods in the middle for maximum privacy from the road (large two-car garage as well!). The owner's suite on main with wood floors has a full bath with a wet/dry sauna included in the original construction. Wood floors are throughout the main and second floor. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a hall bath. The lake facing bedroom has sliding door access to a walk out deck and is so big that one could see using this room as additional living space rather than a bedroom. The walkout basement (with 10" poured foundation walls) has been mostly finished, and a caretaker lived there for a couple years when the sellers had to relocate to ATL, so there is a fully functioning kitchen set-up with exterior access to a terrace level patio and the backyard and lake beyond that. Great for visiting guests. An adjacent living area with sidelight windows serves as more gathering space, and a fourth bedroom style set up with a full bath is off that room (no window in that room). Loads of storage as well. This home and property have been lovingly maintained with updated HVAC, well equipment, water heater and more. It's literally ready to be moved right into and enjoyed. Rare rare opportunity. Lake Oglethorpe is a private peaceful lake. No gas powered boats allowed (just electric trolling motors) and no air bnb or short term rentals permitted. This tight little community is a step back in time in the finest sense.
